April
Hungary won a key
qualifier vs. USSR at the end of the month.
Mark Lawrenson
earned his first cap for Republic of Ireland in a friendly vs. Poland.
Hans Krankl
scored 6 times in Austria’s (9-0) win over Malta in a World Cup qualifier.
West Germany’s
matches in this month were the first in seven years that did not include Franz
Beckenbauer. Berti Vogts was now the team captain in his absence.
For their match
vs. Yugoslavia, Rolf Russmann and Felix Magath (as a substitute) earned their
first caps.
For their match
vs. Northern Ireland, Abramczik and Klaus Fischer earned their first caps.
The
selections of Schalke’s Russmann and Fischer was controversial. They had been
involved in a bribery scandal with Schalke in 1971.
