"Lee Dixon's first goal for England in the ninth minute of this European championship return match was cancelled out eighteen minutes later by Niall Quinn. Manchester United's exciting young prospect Lee Sharpe was introduced to international football at the start of the second-half, but England were lamentable in front of goal against Irish defenders who took no prisoners. Bryan Robson was called up for the first time by Graham Taylor, but he could not galvanise England into winning action. It was Robson's eighty-ninth cap. Injuries robbed him of at least another twenty caps."
