Auchinyell Sox Change Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 iceland at the time were very poor indeed ; not a hope of making any tournament spain at home , was a good perfomance (was my first game at hampden incidentally) but it has to be remembered a/ again the Spain of back then were light years away from the modern version - yes they did get to the finals of the euros in 84 (which was taken that seriously in any case compared to what is happening now / sometimes quality there eclipses world cup) b/ Spain were notorious bad in away games/didnt travel well - it was a different perfomance in the home game - Wales beat them 3-0 in Wrexham i recall with a famous mark hughes scissor kick ;but yet demolished them at home too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
