team notes: |
Manager Alf Ramsey played against Scotland in four matches from 1950
until 1953. This is the first time England have played with
brothers since the Forman's in 1899. Ray Wilson left the pitch with
severley strained chest muscles, a suspected fractured rib, following
a sliding tackle on Henderson. In the 52nd minute, his replacement at
left-back, Byrne, twisted his right knee, after again, attempting a
tackle on Henderson, he was off the field for 17 minutes receiving
treatment, returning only to limp out the match. Bobby Charlton
covered the left-back position. |

notes: Byrne replaced Wilson at

he himself got injured. |

Match Report
by Norman Giller |
England did well to salvage a draw from a game in which they were reduced to
only nine fit players. Ray Wilson went off at half-time with torn rib muscles,
and Johnny Byrne – dropping back to replace Wilson in defence – became a
limping passenger with a knee injury that virtually finished his international
career. Ramsey blooded Barry Bridges, Nobby Stiles and Jack Charlton (with
brother Bobby on the left wing). This was the first time that England's 1966
World Cup defence paraded together. Bobby Charlton and Jimmy Greaves gave
England a commanding 2-0 lead inside the first thirty-five minutes. Denis Law
scored for Scotland five minutes before half-time with a vićiously swerving
shot, and Ian St John equalized midway through the second-half after Cohen had
cleared a Davie Wilson shot off the line. England had won the Home
Championship but most neutral observers thought Alf Ramsey was being
uncharacteristically overconfident when he started forecasting that England
would – not might – would win the World Cup.
