Peter Beardsley was pure class! Has to be up there with the best English players of the modern era and at his peak IMO one of the best players in the world.
Yep he certainly was. Pacey, creative and scored goals... What else would a Manager require let alone an audience/football supporter. Also unselfish even though he could beat players with his skill. He had a decent career to say the least with Liverpool and Newcastle etc, but just gutted never won the League during his time with the Geordies with Keegan + Waddle & the rest. Really shone there... One of the BEST ever/An absolute LEGEND.👍
@@nickycotton6137 Bobby Robson had a knack of not picking his best side at the start of a tournament. Picked the out of form Hateley, Wilkins and injured Robson. Was only when England were staring down the barrel that he found his best team. In form Trevor Steven, Peter Reid and Peter Beardsley came in and gave England a real jolt in the arm.

@@adamw2911 Excellent point..Yet England's form going into the tournament was very good...they had the right flat back four structure, good qualification plus two victories over the Soviet Union (away) and Scotland which showed that Lineker and Beardsley up front worked well, Hodge on the left of midfield, Reid as ball carrier for Hoddle, the issue was if Waddle should play on the right of midfield at best or be a sub and what to do with Robson,, Once he decided to play Robson, this screwed up the team's formation, Waddle played in the centre unseated Hoddle and the fullbacks pushed too far up exposed the central defensive line..Bobby knew what his best team was but did not have the 'courage' to show Wilkins and Robson the bench..
Thanks for these extended highlights. I was fortunate to be there although have to admit having mucho cerveza's that I actually thought at the time Beardsley scored one of the goals! We were opposite side of the stadium from the large contingent of English supporters so it wasn't till later that we found out it was a Lineker hat-trick.
Quite a lot of beers were probably downed to toast this back home,probably,even at the late hour it kicked off,taking it - like all of England's group games - well past midnight 🌛🕐🕰.

Final Group F table after despair turned to joy for England 3-0 against Poland in Monterrey and Morocco beat falling-apart Portugal 3-1 in Guadalajara,late on Wednesday 11th June 1986: Morocco - matches won 1,drawn 2,lost 0 - goals for 3,against 1 - points 4 England - won 1,drawn 1,lost 1 - for 3,against 1 - points 3 Poland - won 1,drawn 1,lost 1 - for 1,against 3 - points 3 Portugal - won 1,drawn 0,lost 2 - for 2,against 4 - points 2 And how the "Group of Sleep",as Mexicans had taken to calling it as the first four matches produced just two goals,suddenly woke up! It was a dramatic turnaround on that final evening as Portugal,top going into the fourth match to be played,tumbled from second top bottom and England climbed from fourth to second - and Poland swapped places with Morocco,too,dropping from first to third while in rising from third to top the Moroccans made history by becoming the first African team to qualify from the group stages. Even if it should by rights have been Algeria when they were robbed by the notorious Anschluss pincer movement between West Germany and Austria in 1982,a World Cup at which Cameroon missed advancing on goal difference as they came away with three draws from a group that contained the eventual champions Italy and semi-finalists Poland. So it had been coming. So with four groups of the six settled Portugal followed Canada,South Korea and Iraq in taking the plane home. Having played all of their group games in Monterrey,England advanced to meet Paraguay in the Azteca Stadium in Mexico City. The only other confirmed second round tie at this stage was the holders Italy's having been handed a testing assignment against 1982 semi-finalists France. Group winners Morocco's reward was a return to Monterrey to play the runners-up in of Group E - almost certain to be a tall task against either West Germany or the dashing Danes,though there was an outside chance of them facing skilful but rugged Uruguay. Poland also advanced,joining Belgium among the four third-placed teams with the best records. The others would be decided by the outcome of the as yet unresolved groups D and E. Bulgaria's hopes were left hanging while the outcome of the group also extinguished the last flicker of Hungary's involvement as their terrible goal difference,following their 6-0 massaxre by the USSR and 3-0 reverse against France,meant they could no longer be among the four third-placed teams to be saved. The knockout second round (last 16) was slowly taking shape and now looked like this: Italy (holders) v France England v Paraguay Mexico (hosts) v third placed nation (Belgium or Poland or either Bulgaria or one from West Germany (very unlikely),Uruguay or Scotland,or one from Spain,Northern Ireland and Algeria) USSR v third placed nation Argentina v third placed nation Winner of Group D (Brazil or Spain) v third placed nation Morocco v runner-up in Group E (Denmark or West Germany,extremely outside chance of it being Uruguay) Winner of Group E (Denmark or West Germany) v runner-up in Group D (Brazil,Spain,Northern Ireland or Algeria).
Lineker won the Golden-Boot too @ Mexico86. Rooney may now have the goal-scoring record, & Shearer scored a fair few, but in the modern era there's never been an England international striker to lace Gary Lineker's boots IMHO :-)
I agree but when Shearer did play he also made his contribution. 5 Goals in Euro '96 (golden boot) and the winner against Germany in the Euro 2000 group game. He also only ever made it to 1 world cup, with only 4 games. Which isn't really enough games to prove himself at international world cup level.
Plus there is no way Lineker would've been stupid enough to mouth off at a camera, moaning about fans booing. I mean these people travel halfway across a globe, to be treated with contempt, while the fat millionaire gripes at a camera. He should've refunded EVERY fan's airfare and accommodation costs for the shitty contempt of South Africa, the gormless, GILF-loving chav twat
The best thing that happened to England at this world cup was Bryan Robson getting injured . Bobby Robson had to change the line up . I really think the best thing for England at the Euros is Rooney not to make the trip .
Couldn't agree more, "shake the Etch-a-Sketch" & suddenly we were an unknown force with Steven, Stevens, Hodge, Reid, Beardsley and Lineker all causing havoc
Actually the sending off to Ray Wilkins was far more sigificant..Wilkins could never get the ball to Hoddle, Reid could, England without Robson was like Germany with Lothar Mattheus..
@@markwhite3444 actually i completely miswrote that..England without Robson was like Germany with Lothar Mattheus..it should have been 'without Lothar Mattheus', Wilkins should have sat in front of the defence and Robson been box to box..but yep Wilkins missing did help...why did you not like Robson?

okay, the Pols had given a wrong impression for the Portos; the latter thought Engleze were out already, and their last game is a vacation to have and win

Wasn’t that on the BBC commentary with Barry Davies “ho no, narvellous goal”.

Morocco v runner-up in Group E (Denmark or West Germany,extremely outside chance of it being Uruguay)

Pretty much the end of Polands reign as a major football power which began, also against England, in 74.
1973,but yes.
well said
No-one was quicker than Gary Lineker when he was on form.
6:15
7:55
15:29
The English team saved his chance to qualify to the next round..... liniker was very Incredible here.... amazing hatrick 😍😍❤️❤️🏴
Who else watching the Paraguay one after
And to think my favourite player on that pitch turned out to be Dariusz Dziekanowski
I don't understand why the low part of mexican stadium was empty. England and poland should be a great public.

This was also Peter Shilton’s revenge for 1973. Nothing got past him.
The cold-blooded played a hot and wonderful match before their effort was wasted ...

I don't know why the fat slob is still playing football.
