[@dirkbogarde44]

Is it me or was international football back then more exciting, esp fixtures like this. Even if we never did much, it seemed to matter more.

[@robicenco1]

Phil Thompson's barnet was something else in those days.

[@user-mk6qc2xy4y]

One of my favourite England teams. Two wingers, a big centre forward, Wilkins as the anchor man, and Keegan and Brooking seemingly going where they wanted. It wouldn't have beaten the world's best at the time but it was good to watch.

[@markmeade478]

Keegan's goal was class.

[@neilbooth8510]

Watched this in a portable telly as I was on a camping hol! It was a great week, Forest won the European Cup (which we also watched on the Portable), England beat Scotland 3-1, and I got pissed nearly every night down the pub with my uncle and his godson! Not, at 16, it took very much to get me pissed! :)

[@andyspokes2915]

Just imagine combining these two teams as a "British Lions" they would have won in Spain 1982. great England team great Scottish team. Happy days.

[@nicolavivarelli4127]

You're right! 2 very good teams

[@djelalniyazi4090]

thats what i allways wanted hasnt happened yet no combined british teams in compitions , we would win world cups

[@kailashpatel1706]

People say England were at a low ebb, they only missed the '78' world cup because of goal difference. They won 5 out of 6 matches...

[@bigphil331]

They had so many players to choose from in the 70s, they got pipped in qualifying for the 74 World Cup by Poland, Poland went on to finish 3rd. They got pipped in qualifying for the 78 World Cup by Italy, Italy went on to finish 4th.

[@michaelmuldowney8]

Failure to score enough against the part-timers of Finland during 78 campaign was what cost England.

[@harryf1ashman]

My father (a Scotsman) always used to remind me about Scotland qualifying in '74 and '78. What he failed to mention was the quality of the opposition. England lost out to Italy on GD.

[@johnbuggy9121]

They'd some fine players during the 70s but it was harder to qualify for a World Cup back then. They were unlucky against Poland at Wembley in '73, but I think Italy deserved to win the group for the qualifiers in '78. They had an edge to them that England didn't possess at the time - a battle hardened midfield.

[@martinmay8919]

I was at this game with a mini bus load of drunken Grimsby dockers.. After the game, one of the dockers stuck his head out of the window yelling "we are the people!" The jocks nearly turned our bus over. Great atmosphere, there were more than 100,000 there, since many jocks scaled the outside of the stadium and climbed through the windows. They were sat in the isles of the seats, you couldn't get past them to go to the loo.

[@desdog100]

didnt keegan and brooking play well together.Shame they never played at club level with each other.

[@Happysundaze]

Great third goal by England, When we talk about British teams playing with speed and accuracy that's the template for me, Trouble is it's not just about fitness you still need very skilful players to make it work. Right now both teams are at a fairly low ebb. At least they both have honest, intelligent managers who know the problem.

[@witcharoj]

[@notoriousdeg4631]

Coppell is a legend

[@rc2869]

He was a very good footballer.

[@harryf1ashman]

Let's be honest, if it were not for the Scottish keeper, the result in many of these games could have been quite different.

[@DonswatchingtheTube]

I remember this game. Alan Rough! He was always a liability. He didn't know how to dive sideways for low balls. It was amazing how the Scottish camp placed so much faith in him. Bring back the home internationals.

[@bazd884]

Ehhhh Alan Rough didn’t play. The goalkeeper was George Wood.

[@markywellsboy2182]

WATCHED LIKED THANK FOR VIDEO BAKU CITY

[@grahampearson5670]

In those days, they would have used video discs or video game like cartridges for the Repet-Replay sequences.

[@Brentford-rf5sh]

I remember being in Switzerland at the time of the game, didn't know the score until I stopped some random bloke off the street near Interlaken. Fearing this fella spoke no English, I thought I'd ask him anyway what was the score. To my amazement, he replied '1-0 Scotland, nah wait a minute 1-1 at half time, no no hold on its now 3-1 England, I asked, 'how dyo know that ?' He replied unfortunately I'm Scottish 😂

[@pmam1968]

@nelbragg They say that because they were at war for hundreds of years. They've been unified as part of the United Kingdom for over 300 years but there are still significant cultural differences between the two countries and they still teach history at school!

[@ralphmorris8169]

Brooking was such a talented player, don’t think he got enough credit

[@robertmac9057]

Yes the older he got the better he played for England. Most of his best games were in the 1979-82 period.

[@duffymoony]

[@Coultermark23]

If this was at Wembley why did he keep saying there were hardly any English fans 🤔

[@sidneygreen9120]

Obviously the jocks still have an Argentinian hangover, but they gave us all a good laugh 😂 😂 😂

[@matelot95]

wasn't this the game where the big jock skinhead ran on the pitch?

[@freewheelman68]

Dalglish totally outmatched by the previous King of the Kop

[@robicenco1]

1:31 Latchford's challenge on Wood would be a red card these days (in rugby...).

[@jonnybottle]

I enjoyed the 1978 game more. Wonder why it's not in here ;0)!. Beat em 1:0 as a fitting send off to Argentina. Nice volley from Coppell as I recall.

[@thomas-fq1wi]

lol 78 was a bad year for us

[@runfaraz]

Without showing the drunk Scott fan who ran on the pitch at the 30 minute mark of the first half, this video is worthless. I just saw it on GOL TV, it was 3 minutes of greatness.

[@MrJeepsters]

How are scotisch keepers choosen ?

[@dpinzow]

Five Liverpool players at the time in the starting lineups (Dalglish, Souness for Scotland, Neal, Clemence, and Thompson for England)

Wanabepetegreen is that right? Think you’ll find it was stopped due to over congestion of fixtures. Was funny how the English got in a massive tiz over a pitch invasion that involved zero violence meanwhile their fans were reeking chaos and violence all over the continent at the time

[@wanabepetegreen1132]

@@AlienProbe73 Sorry but youve got it wrong, it was played for generations, it stopped after that day, .3/4 of that crowd where English Jocks, worst thing that happened to Scottish football, they never get the same class tuition they had from playing home Internationals.

John Wark - deadly from a yard.

[@glennfleming]

The best part about Keegan's goal is John Wark: Wark trips Kevin as he passes to Brooking, but he keeps going. Don't you just love it when the Jocks get stuffed by England!!

[@Paul55108]

Have u been watching the rugby last 5 years … yes it is fun to watch the English getting stuffed by the Scot’s too … but I won’t call u any names … hopefully u manage to see it for what it is though , sport not hatred, we do after all have a long history when it really matters off being allies… good luck at the World Cup

I might be wrong but I think Ray Wilkins was still a Chelsea player at time of this game. Signed for United that summer I think

[@TonyBananas101]

How come Alan Hansen's no in any of these Scottish teams. Fair weather international that's why.

That was 3-0 not 3-1! How can that Scotland goal stand after two fouls and an offside.. digusting. Looks like the refs have always had it in for England even before my time

[@skababooshka]

i think history shows that England have beaten Scotland something like with about 48 wins to 44 with 24 draws.. I just wonder if the Scotland Goalie was as competent as any English Goalie i doubt England would have won ten matches.

[@thomas-fq1wi]

Can you imagine Scotland playing a region of England that has 650,000 population, 114 times, instead of playing a region with 40 million , that's the equivalent 8 times the size , the head to head would have been about 100 wins 7 losses and 7 draws lol

More pride in the teams then ,not qualify because the budgie was born there ,every player born in his respective country

Really? What would an Aussie know about football? Or a Scot that lives there. I used to think the world of Keegan because of his passion and honesty. Now I think a little differently. He lacks conviction and staying power. Cry baby. As for the word douchebag, times are changing, cultural phrases and vernaculars are becoming more universal.
