England paid the price. As such |
|
Yugoslavia beat England 1-0 to deny Sir Alf Ramsey's world champions the chance to add the European crown to their trophy cabinet.Coach Rajko Mitic had claimed before the 1968 UEFA European Football Championship semi-final that this was Yugoslavia's best team since the one he [url=http://www.pmituae.com/main.html]cheap new york giants jerseys[/url] himself had graced in the 1950s – and the opposition seemed to believe him. 'England in danger of defeat' ran the headline in one English national newspaper, and so it proved as a result of Dragan Džajić's decisive [url=http://www.gnanananda.org/gnananda.html]cheap chicago bears jerseys[/url] goal.Ramsey's team selection appeared to reflect the caution of his country, with two ball-winners among a five-man midfield playing behind only Roger Hunt up front. Shorn of Geoff Hurst and Nobby Stiles, both injured during a friendly in Hannover just four days earlier, England paid the price. As such, their opponents, deploying a sweeper at the back, showed no fear.It also proved to be a game lacking in fluidity, though England nonetheless managed to create a handful of chances, Alan Ball heading against the bar from an offside position [url=http://www.afett.com/Uploads/team.html]cheap san francisco 49ers jerseys[/url] before then shooting over wastefully after a good [url=http://www.pmituae.com/main.html]cheap nfl womens jerseys[/url] move. The 1966 FIFA World Cup winners might have won comprehensively if they had the firepower, or indeed a winger to match Džajić, the smoothest in Europe.Showing tremendous ball control for someone so tall and well built, he beat three men with bewildering sleight of foot before being stopped by a fourth. When a long ball came in from the left, he stole behind the admirable Bobby Moore, chested it down and hammered it high past Gordon Banks in the England goal.England's task became doubly difficult when Alan Mullery received the dubious honour of becoming the first ever England player to be sent off in the country's 424-international history. It proved beyond them.
