UEFA EURO 2008 Austria-Switzerland

If the nerves were gnawing away at him inside then Paul Robinson is a better actor than he is a goalkeeper.

Sterner tests lie ahead for the Tottenham man than this Israeli team.

But few keepers have gone into a match under as much scrutiny as Robinson - think Croatian back-passes and German crosses from the flank - and he stood tall and dealt with every threat, not that there were many.

He shouted, cajoled, organised. He pointed at potential dangers.

His concentration will be needed in far greater portions when the Russians come to Wembley on Wednesday.
