World Cup Special
England's footballers face their toughest task for years in Rome on Wednesday, when they play Italy - a match that could well decide which country qualifies for the World Cup finals in Argentina in 1978. Can Don Revie's team survive the pressures of playing the Italians in front of their own fiercely partisan supporters? To try and find the answer, PETER LORENZO talks to some of the former star British footballers who have played in the Italian League, with BRYON BUTLER reporting on England's build-up to the big match. Plus a look ahead to two other vital World Cup matches on Wednesday - Scotland against Wales at Hampden Park, and France v the Republic of Ireland in Paris.
