- Yugoslavia and England play out an entertaining 2-2 friendly draw in Belgrade in June 1974. Under caretaker manager Joe Mercer England are starting to put the pain of failing to qualify for the World Cup finals behind them and take an early lead through Mick Channon. However, Petkovic pulls the Yugoslavs level before a superb goal by Oblak puts them ahead. Kevin Keegan, recovering from an earlier incident with customs officials at the airport, grabs England's equaliser and Malcolm Macdonald spurns a great chance to win it. Includes an interview with Mercer and the thoughts of Sir Alf Ramsey and Brian Clough with Brian Moore.
Wow. Sir Alf Ramsey and Brian Clough side by side in the studio.h
that fucking second yugoslavia goal was excellent!!!
Back when England had passionated commentators, not the generic ones you have today
It was a great shame that Joe Mercer did not become full time England instead of Don Revie. England would have gone places with Joe Mercer
He outlined a possible framework!!...Keegan/Channon/Worthington pulling defences apart, Bell and Brooking prompting, Watson and Todd supplying the rearguard (would have been Roy McFarland if he had not been injured around this time..
They would have qualified for the ‘78 World Cup
Great speech by Joe Mercer
Yeah a great patriot, lovely guy.
It was. Brilliant.
Wonderful Joe Mercer - what a Gentleman. It's arguable whether England would have been more successful if he'd stayed as manager - but they would have been a damn sight better to watch!
Oblak super goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And back then they played with a football, not volleyball.
Some goal!
joe mercer [ great man
Bogicevic...what a great bloody presence of a player.
Joe should have stayed on, he could not have done worst that's for sure.
ENGLANDS MOST UNDERATED PLAYER OF ALL TIME COLIN BELL, BETTER THAN BALL .PETERS PUT TOGETHER
HOW BRAVE WAS KEEGAN TO SCORE THAT[ HUGH JOHNS SEEMED MORE EXCITED WHEN YOUGOSLAVIA SCORED
He's Welsh. Why should he be excited when England score?
Joe mercer was better than Malcolm Allison
Yugoslavia’s goals were better, thus requiring any unbiased announcer to react accordingly. That’s how it should be
RIP Ilija Petković
Was this the last time England wore the Umbro kit before the Admiral kits were adopted ?
And the great Hugh Johns of course!
Great Yugoslav side....dispenced the invincible myth of the Brazilians in 74....
Bullshit
In your dreams, euro boy..lol
They had a very good EURO 76 as well!
Cloughie being a bit contrary there...
Was this game originally planned as a pre World Cup friendly game
england played great that night i remember[ of course media don,t mentio it
Hugh Johns commentating?
Wish England had kept that kit.....
Your joking aren't you? Admiral did a mighty fine job replacing that dated relic.
That kit had class, quality and HISTORY. The modern kits are far too gimmicky and flashy to be taken seriously
I totally agree, simple white kit is best, all that red & blue stripes added over the years is bloody awful, 1990-92, 92-93, 2009-10 are the only decent kits England have had in the past 45 years.
england played great
Oblak!
That Manchester City stiff Colin Bell gave the ball away for the first Yugoslavia goal.
MCFC embarrassing English football since the 60s
