Middlesbrough FC's
Alan Peacock was the original chosen centre-forward, his place
going to Ray Crawford on 1 April. Peacock needed surgery on a
fractured cheekbone and would miss the rest of the season. This is
the 59th match England have played in April, and the first time since
the second in 1888 against Ireland, that England have played a country
other than Scotland. |

Match Report
by Norman Giller |
England avenged the defeat in Vienna of the previous year thanks
mainly to the midfield domination of Johnny Haynes, who kept picking holes in
the massed Austrian defence with low, angled passes. Five goal chances fell to
the feet of Liverpool striker Roger Hunt, who was making his debut along with
Sunderland's rugged Stan Anderson. Hunt was able to score from only one of the
opportunities, and the London press started the Greaves v. Hunt debate that
was to last throughout their careers. It is worth pointing out here that Jimmy
and Roger have nothing but the highest respect for each other and that the
'bitter rivalry' between them was manufactured by the media.

Source Notes |
"England's training
session yesterday in preparation for the match against Austria at Wembley
to-morrow was cancelled. Arsenal were to have provided the opposition for
a full-scale practice at the White City, but with several knocks in hard
matches on Saturday it was decided to give the party a free day."
