Assist: Graham Rix. "A long ball from Osman was headed wide of the right-hand post by Mariner, but the ball did not go out of play. Instead the ever alert Robson was able to turn it back across the goal mouth from the byline. Mariner managed another header. Rix's shot was smartly blocked by Rasmussen and Franics scored from the rebound." Trevor Francis9th of 12 goals. Left-footed from 2 yards., 7' 06:59
Assist: Terry Butcher. "...England forced a corner on the left. Butcher challenged strongly at the near post from Wilkin's kick and the ball skidded on to Francis who scooped it in." Trevor Francis10th of 12 goals. Left-footed from 3 yards., 81' 80:22
