Probably the first England game I can clearly remember. Mariner scored a fair few important goals for England. Really sad to hear of his passing. Condolences to his family.

This England squad was great. It was a completely one-sided game. Although Hungary had already qualified at this point, this match showd their weaknesses. They couldn't take the pressure and England's physical game. Keegan was a small man but he won every ball inside the box. He was such a fighter. Georgie Best slagged him off but he was wrong. Keegan was a world class footballer. This England team went out unbeaten in Spain. If Keegan hadn't been injured, they could've gone further. I dare to say that this squad was England's second best after the WC winning team of 66. Better than the squads of 90 and 2018.

No, i don't think they were better than the 1990 squad...i think post 1966 its 1. 1970 2. 1990 3. 1982...the above team would been 30% better with Clough and Taylor managing who would also have beefed up the squad..did not rate the 2018 squad at all, Colombia with James would have beaten them..

I saw in a documentary that El Salvador only arrived literally days before their first match against Hungary at Spain 82, as their country was in a civil war at the time and they struggled to get a flight to the World Cup. In their remaining group matches they only lost 2-0 to Argentina and 1-0 to Belgium. The lack of preparation time for the Hungary game caused the thrashing.

This qualifying campaign sticks in the mind as being a particularly tortuous one for England fans. Three away defeats out of four and it looked like all was lost. Then Romania imploded and failed to win any of their last three games, opening the door for England's lucky qualification.

What a shame England couldn't win that QF group in Spain the next year.

Good point, It was Phil Neal's poor tackle in Euro 80 that let Tardelli in for the winner and he was just not up to inter standard..A better manager would have seen that..Greenwood wasted a good squad of players, misused Paul Mariner's hold up play along with Ray Kennedy and no Statham, Regis, Cowans, Morley, Devonshire in a true sense...Beattie's career had ended with injury in 1980 depriving England of a WC defender instead of Pil Thompson, some were brought in only ad hoc..Clough and Taylor would have seen the case for a clear out form the defence onwards..

Weirdly this was probably the worst qualifying campaign England have ever taken part in - and yet, thanks to Romania bottling it in the run-in, we still made it! ... Everyone remembers the campaigns for 74, 78 and 94 as terrible failures (which obviously they were in the grand scheme of things, as we didn't make it to the finals) - but there were actually more bad performances in the 82 campaign than any of those other ones! Just a hell of a lot more luck!
