Lineker leaves on a losingnote
STOCKH OLM Jupe 19 : Gary Lineker, described admiringly as the king of the penalty area by
England manager Graham Taylor, abdicated his throne on Thursday — one goal short of ensuring himself a place in soccer's history books, reports Reuter.
For six games Lineker was stuck on 48 goals, one behind England's all-time highest scorer Bobby Chariton.
The prince charming of English soccer took the stage at the European Championship finals for a farewell performance where he was expected to claim the record outright.
But the modest and unassuming former Tottenham striker, who has never been booked or sent off in his career, was substituted 18 minutes from the end of his final game against Sweden.
Time had run out for him.
When he looks back, he will sec his missed penalty against Brazil in May as the costliest blunder of his career.
Charlton remains England's top goalscorer, with 49 in 106 internationals, although Lineker finished with a better scoring rate with 48 from 80.
Another Tottenham stalwart, Jimmy Greaves, struck 44 goals in 57 games in the 1960s.
Lineker, modest to the end, said on Thursday: "1 have had such a great career I am not going to let the last few games cloud that.”
”1 was disappointed this morning, but once the dust settles I will be able to look back and remember all the good times rather than the bad and 1 know they will outweigh the bad ones.
"1 don't feel humiliated at being substituted. 1 was surprised and disappointed, but the record was the least important thing of all.
The most important thing was the success of the team. It
was a far bigger disappointment going out of the tournament."
Charlton paid Lineker a glowing tribute. "Natural goal scorers don't come every day." he said. "He's got a great temperament and he's a marvellous goal scorer. He is all that's good about the game."
England manager Taylor is one of Lineker's greatest ad-
mirers.
There is no doubt in my mind Lineker will have the title of the best goalscorer this country has ever known," he' said.
“He is a scorer of the highest order. It ts disappointing that he has not broken the record, but if you look at his whole career it has been excellent."
Lineker . who has had the added pressure this year of his baby son George suffering from leukaemia, confirmed on Thursday he would not go back on his decision to retire from English league and international football at the age of 31.
Lineker, who began his career at leicester 14 years ago and has plied his trade for Ev-
erton and Barcelona, joins a Japanese club next year in their fledgling league.
His career high point was a hat-trick against Poland in the 1986 World Cup finals in Mexico which put England into the second round after a disastrous start. He finished the tournament as top scorer.
That game changed my career. If I hadn't scored those goals I probably wouldn't have played for England again and would not have gone to Barcelona," he said. The Mexico World Cup was the highlight of my career."
He honed his penalty area skills to the point where he could always be relied on to score, provided teammates created the chances.
To succeed you have to be ambitious, intelligent enough to escape a marker or a sweeper. Goalscoring is about gambling and taking chances," he said.
"People will say : "Oh, he was lucky, he was in the right place.' But its always about being in the right place at the right time."
That is something Lineker turned Into an art form.
