Match No. 697 - Wednesday, 9th June 1993, 5:45pm

  • "Agoos long ball from the left reached Ramos near the right-hand byline and his precise cross found Dooley sprinting late into the goalmouth to head past Woods at the near post." Thomas Dooley, 43'42:35
  • "Lalas had been on the field only four minutes - having replaced Dooley, a victim of a late lunge by Ince - when he surprised England's defenders with a well-timed leap to meet Ramos's corner and nod the ball firmly past Woods." Alexi Lalas, 72'71:08
