Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Joe Baker,
deputising for the hospitalized Greaves, put England in the lead in the
nineteenth minute. The Irish equalised sixty seconds later when Willie
Irvine turned a George Best centre through the legs of an embarrassed
Gordon Banks. Persistent rain made the surface treacherous, and the Irish
defenders were slithering around when Alan Peacock scored England's winner
in the seventieth minute. Under gentle persuasion from Alf Ramsey - and at
club level, Matt Busby - Bobby Charlton was starting to specialize
in more of a withdrawn role, and he was developing into the Great
Conductor.
