3. Euro 1992
Trending
The 1990 World Cup was surprisingly good for England – they made it all the way to the semi-finals so most people expected them to have a good Euro in 1992. Well, that wasn’t meant to be as they drew their first two games of the group stage goalless and then lost their third one 2-1 to Sweden.
That last group game was exceptionally horrific for England fans. It was Gary Lineker’s final game for England and despite being drawn at 0-0 with Sweden, their then manager Graham Taylor decided to take Lineker off!
England exited the tournament in disgrace and Taylor’s infamous decision was denounced by fans, critics, and experts alike.
