Match Report

|
England's run of eight matches without defeat (W7 Dl LO F44 A11) ended in the Prater Stadium. The Austrians played a
clever retreating defensive game and concentrated on hitting England with
quick counter-attacks. Jimmy Greaves equalized their early goal, but the
England defence - in which Burnley team-mates John Angus and Brian Miller were
winning their only caps - lacked its usual understanding and they conceded two
late goals against an innovative Austrian attack. The demand of playing three
games in seven days proved too much for an England team that wilted after
matching the Austrians for the first hour.
