Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Goals from George Eastham and Johnny Byrne gave England a 2-1 half-time lead
and Jimmy Greaves wrapped it up in the fifty-fifth minute when he put the
finishing touch to a classic five-man move down the right wing involving
Milne, Thompson, Byrne and Eastham. Manchester United skipper Noel Cantwell
switched from left-back to the middle of the Irish defence in a bid to control
Byrne, who was at his brilliant best as he tormented his markers with subtle
touches and clever changes of pace. It was not lost on the spectators jammed
into Dalymount Park in Dublin that their defence was being tormented by a
player with strong Irish ancestry. Tony Waiters, a lifeguard on the Blackpool
beach when he was not guarding the Blackpool goal, played the first of his
five England games at the back of the England defence.
