<br />
<u><strong>World Cup Final</strong></u><br />
Argentina 3 West Germany 2<br />
<em>Brown 23, Valdano 55, Burruchaga 83; Rummenigge 74, Voller 80</em><br />
<strong><u></u></strong><br />
Both the BBC and the ITV had the delight of showing the world cup final live - a situation which must have upset someone.<br />
<u></u><br />
Gary Lineker was a studio guest for the BBC and was able to cheer as Maradona's blank ensured the Golden Boot would be ending up on Gary's mantelpiece - although I expect being presented with the world cup was enough of a consolation for Diego.<br />

<br />

<br />
6- Lineker (Eng)<br />

5 - Maradona (Arg), Careca (Bra), Butragueno (Spa)<br />

3 - Ceulemans (Bel), Claesen (Bel), J. Olsen (Den), Voller (WGer)<br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
<u>Third Place Play-off</u><br />
France 4 Belgium 2 (after extra time)<br />
<em>Ferreri 27, Papin 43, Genghini 104, Amoroa (pen) 111; Ceulemans 11, Claesen 73</em><br />
<br />
<u></u><br />
Third place play offs are curious things - as far as I know, the world cup is the only tournament to have one (the FA Cup had a few in the early 1970s).<br />
<br />
However, perhaps because there is no tension, they usually end up being good games and this one followed that pattern. A ding-dong battle going into extra-time.<br />
<br />
Oddly neither channel decided to show the game live - ITV had evening highlights.<br />

A rest day - everyone looked forward to the final - Argentina vs West Germany.<br />
<br />

<br />
<u></u><br />
Semi finals day - and ITV kicked off at 7pm for West Germany v France. A considerably less eventful semi than the one four years previously and the Germans were through to their umpteenth major final.<br />
<br />
Over to the BBC for the 11pm game and as Argentina saw off Belgium, England fans could only think of what might have been. New villain Maradona was now perilously close to taking the Golden Boot off our Gary which would have added insult to insult.<br />
<br />

So now four teams were left - and the semi-finals were the next day.<br />
<br />
West Germany v France (a repeat of the controversial 1982 semi-final)<br />
<br />
Argentina v Belgium<br />
<br />
<br />
Meanwhile here are some highlights of the quarter final - Belgium v Spain<br />

A disappointed nation went back to work on Monday morning.<br />
<br />
The mood was not lifted by England's cricket team crashing to an expected heavy defeat.<br />

Belgium win 5-4 on penalties<br />
<u></u><br />
England expects! A nation crowded in front of their respective televisions at 7pm as ITV displayed one of the most famous (or infamous) England games of all time. Maradona showed us his worst and his best and sent England home. Gary Lineker got his sixth to go top of the Golden Boot charts.<br />
<br />
Many people might have gone to bed disappointed and not stayed up for the 11pm kick off on the BBC - Belgium becoming the third semi-finalist to go through on penalties, and Butragueno's golden boot dream was gone.<br />

West Germany win 4-1 on penalties<br />
<u></u><br />
<em><u></u></em>So off we went for a weekend footy and the BBC opened the proceedings with the live game France v Brazil kicking off at 7pm. Now recognised as one of the great World Cup games, a frantic fast paced game resulted in France's victory on penalties. The great Brazil team of the 1980s had now missed out. Careca had now moved level at the top of the Golden Boot charts, although Gary Lineker and Emilio Butragueno were both still in the tournament.<br />
<br />
ITV at 11pm, meantime, got the other side of the coin - a long tedious game resulting in a German win on penalties (not for the last time!)<br />
<br />
In the cricket, England were being well beaten - and a nation hoped its' footballers would do better.<br />

<br />
France v Brazil<br />
West Germany v Mexico<br />
Argentina v England<br />
Belgium v Spain<br />

<br />
What an evening of footy!<br />
<br />
England expected .. and, for once, England delivered. Both BBC and ITV had the game live as England put in a comfortable victory. Two typical Lineker goals put him top of the Golden Boot charts. The cry was now 'Bring On The Argies'.<br />
<br />
An extra treat awaited those who stayed up for the 11pm game on the BBC. Denmark, impressive so far, were themselves demolished by an even more impressive Spain. Butragueno finding the net four times to equal the record for most goals by a player in one game (Salenko of Russia got five against Cameroons in 1994).<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
Again it was ITV's turn for the early kick off at 7pm and France booked a quarter final with Brazil by seeing off Italy.<br />
<br />
On BBC at 11pm and Morocco, the surprise winners of England's group, battled well but went down to a late West German goal. The wait for an African world cup quarter finalist goes on. Amazingly this was only the fourth goal in four games from West Germany.<br />

<br />
ITV had the early 7pm kick off as Brazil demolished Poland - Careca's fourth of the tournament tying him for the Golden Boot - while the BBC had the late game at 11pm with Argentina winning through a tough battle.<br />
<br />
By now, it was twigged that we were heading for an Argentina-England showdown just four years after the Falklands war.<br />

<br />
Into the knockout stages (the first time since 1938 that the knockout stages began at 16 teams).<br />
<br />
The BBC were live at 7pm as the hosts made it into the quarter finals, and then a treat for anyone who stayed up late for the ITV game kicking off at 11pm with Belgium, having just sneaked into the round, putting four past the Soviet Union. Belanov's hat trick placed him sharing the golden boot but no-one thought he would stay there.<br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
The end of the first round and a rest day - on a Saturday! Some bad scheduling from someone there.<br />
<br />
South Korea, Iraq, Hungary, Canada, Northern Ireland, Algeria, Scotland and Portugal were all out and the final 16 teams went through to the knock out phase.<br />
<br />
The final 16 lined up as:<br />
<br />
Argentina v Uruguay<br />
England v Paraguay<br />
Denmark v Spain<br />
Soviet Union v Belgium<br />
Brazil v Poland<br />
Italy v France<br />
Morocco v West Germany<br />
Mexico v Bulgaria<br />
<br />
The prospect of an Argentina v England game four years after the Falklands war gave much thought but in the top half, only Denmark were the other team who were considered contenders.<br />
Many of the favourites were in the bottom half - including the hosts, Mexico, the favourites, Brazil, and the usual suspects of West Germany and Italy.<br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
Despite two losses, a win for Scotland would still make them amongst the four best third placed teams, ahead of Northern Ireland (one point) and Bulgaria (two points with a '-2' goal difference). ITV viewers were there at 7pm for the kick off and Scotland's chances were improved when Uruguay had a sending off in the first minute!<br />
<br />
However, Uruguay just needed a draw which they got with a determined performance in a dull game, and Scotland joined the Northern Irish on an early flight back to Blighty.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, another impressive performance from Denmark as the Germans were defeated and the Danes topped the group.<br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
Could Northern Ireland defeat Brazil by two goals to guarantee a last 16 place? Even a win by one goal might have been enough. But no, BBC viewers saw the live game at 7pm and Brazil's best performance so far. Northern Ireland's third place with one point was not good enough.<br />
<br />
Spain, meanwhile, coasted home.<br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
Again ITV only had the second half of a game - Coronation Street obviously a lot more important then than now - and Mexico got the win they needed to top the group. A good game was taking place elsewhere as Paraguay and Belgium shared four goals - Belgium finished third in the table but were higher than the two third places so far - so were in the last 16.<br />
<br />
And then, with bated breath, a nation watched England kick off at 11pm on the BBC - and watched as Gary Lineker destroyed Poland. A complete change of performance and England were in the last 16. Poland had done enough to join them and the group was surprisingly topped by Morocco, who sent home Portugal.<br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
This time it was Emmerdale Farm which ITV could not move and so again with both matches kicking off at 7pm, British viewers only got a live second half. The consolation was that it was a cracker with South Korea giving Italy a fright. Altobelli's double equalling the lead for the Golden Boot.<br />
<br />
Italy and Argentina confidently booking their places in the second round. Bulgaria having to wait to see if they got one of the four best third places - but they were ahead of Canada from last night.<br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
The final games of each group were to be played at the same time (as they still are to this day), which was a legacy of the 1982 West Germany v Austria match where both sides engineered a result to see them through.<br />
<br />
But, with both games kicking off at 7pm, only the second half of one game - France v Hungary - was on offer. ITV in those days were very reluctant to move Coronation Street.<br />
<br />
France and the Soviet Union secured their last 16 place with convincing wins. Hungary probably had not done enough. At least Canada did not have too far to fly home.<br />
<br />
Group C:<br />

<em>Stopyra 29, Tigana 62, Rocheteau 84</em><br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
A Sunday feast as the two TV games matched the occasion. On BBC at 7pm, the live game saw Scotland cross swords with West Germany and go down in a tight game. Qualification chances were now very slim. Highlights were shown of Belgium defeating Iraq.<br />
<br />
ITV had the late night game kicking off at 11pm where Denmark absolutely demolished Uruguay and seal their place in the next round. The tournament's first hat trick saw Elkjaer leap into the lead for the Golden Boot.<br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
ITV had the Northern Ireland game live at 7pm with the Mexico-Paraguay game highlighted. Spain gained revenge for the home defeat in 1982 and Northern Ireland now had to get something out of Brazil. Meanwhile the host nation limbered on to a disappointing draw. <br />
<br />
Then for the late night option, at 11pm, the BBC had Poland seeing off England's conquerors to Portugal to open the group up.<br />

<strong><u></u></strong><br />
Strangely BBC continued showing only parts of games - at 7.40pm, the second half of Brazil beating Algeria 1-0 was followed by highlights of Hungary defeating Canada.<br />
<br />
Not a great performance by one of the favourites but Brazil had now got their place in round two. Hungary had improved their chances but had a tough game against France to come.<br />
<br />
A late night for England fans, as ITV had the game for an 11pm kick off. A dreary game and another poor performance saw Bryan Robson go off inured and Ray Wilkins get sent off for throwing the ball at the referee. Two games, one point, no goals - yet another England disappointment was on the cards.<br />
