Double from Kevin Keegan as England qualified for the European Championship.Fantastic atmosphere at a packed Wembley Stadium.Marching bands prior to the game.Huge rendition of Land of Hope and Glory (much better than the national anthem).Confusing night for me in England hat and Ireland scarf.Got some funny looks,still my mind was made up as I'd be off to Lansdowne Road later that year.
