KOd without losing 1982 and 'the hand of god' 1986. How's your luck?
After a decade in the World Cup shade England were finally back on finals duty in 1982 Spain. Ron Greenwood's team qualified from group 4 in second place. A tough group with Hungary, Romania, Switzerland and Norway. There was an embarrassing two-one reverse against then minnows Norway but qualification was secured on 18th November 1981 with a tough one nil win over Hungary @ Wembley.

Minnows of the World Cup. Will there be any shock results?
Heavyweights of the 2010 World cup recieve the lion's share of press coverage. I thought it may be of interest to have a look at least fancied teams in the competition.
