The Quarter
Finals
Three of the quarter finals
were very poor. Argentina and Yugoslavia drew 0-0 - and
both teams had problems scoring in the penalty shoot-out!
Even Diego Maradona missed one before his team finally won
3-2.
Italy beat Ireland 1-0 while a first half penalty was
enough to give West Germany victory against Czechoslovakia.
England v
Cameroon
The only real excitement came in the
game between England and Cameroon. The African team
continued their strong form. England took the lead but
Cameroon scored two quick goals. They came within ten
minutes of knocking England out of the competition.
Cameroon's poor defending cost them the game. They gave
away two penalties came and Lineker scored them both.
England were fortunate to win 3-2 after extra time.
