  • Assist: Viv Anderson. "In the 14th minute Wilkins took a corner on the left and Butcher easily beat Yasar in the air, Anderson nodded the ball on and Robson flung himself over the top of the defenders to head England into the lead." Bryan Robson12th of 26 goals. Header from 3 yards., 14' 13:31
  • "In the 17th minute the game was as good as over as a contest. Rasit, under pressure from Butcher, half-way inside his own half, gave the ball to Woodcock and the Arsenal striker surged through to score with a low shot between the goalkeeper and the near post." Tony Woodcock15th of 16 goals. Left-footed from 12 yards., 18' 17:16
  • Assist: Steve Williams. "England moved up a gear and scored a third goal a minute before half-time.

Yasar managed to touch William's shot on to a post but Robson followed up to score easily." Bryan Robson13th of 26 goals. Left-footed from 2 yards., 44' 43:58

  • Assist: Ray Wilkins. "Wilkins instigated the next two goals, sending Robson through on a typical run to beat the offside trap on the left and Yasar with a crisp shot..." Bryan Robson14th of 26 goals. Left-footed from 10 yards., 59' 58:44
  • Assist: Viv Anderson. "...and launching Anderson on the right for the cross that Woodcock carefully chested down before scoring." Tony Woodcock16th of 16 goals. Right-footed from 8 yards., 62' 61:31

Notes

  • Disallowed GoalGary Stevens has the ball in the net in the 78th minute (77:08) but it's not clear from the TV pictures why the ref disallows it, possibly for Anderson being in an offside position but it's doubtful he was.
  • Hat-Trick: Bryan Robson1st hat-trick (66th overall).
  • Player MilestoneSteve Williams' Last Cap
  • Player MilestonePeter Withe's Last Cap
