Match Report

Mike
O'Grady, twenty-year-old
Huddersfield winger and the fifth son of an Irishman, was the latest player
tried at outside-left. He must have shaken the skeletons of his ancestors as he sank
Northern Ireland with two goals. Jimmy Greaves, another player with deep Irish
roots, also scored in a match that featured the debut at centre-half of Brian
Labone.
