Match worn Spain player shirt worn by Francisco "Paco" Javier Clos for 1986 World Cup Qualifying match against Wales Provenance: The shirt comes from the players personal collection Summary: Wales 3:0 Spain 1985 World Cup qualifier Date: 30 April, 1985 Wales claim a historic victory over Euro 1984 runners-up Spain in Wrexham in 1985. Ian Rush opens the scoring at the Racecourse with a first-half tap-in before strike-partner Mark Hughes' memorable scissors kick goal in his home-town. Legendary striker Rush sealed the comfortable win over the giants of world football but Wales failed to qualify for the 1986 World Cup. Spain were missing a handful of key players – among them left-back José Antonio Camacho, the future national team boss, and livewire striker Emilio Butragueño – but they remained a formidable side. Miguel Muñoz’s team had reached the final of the previous year’s European Championship, losing to hosts France, and the spine of that side remained in place. #matchworn #classicfootballshirts #spain
