Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Jimmy Greaves, back in the England
team after his hepatitis-forced five-month lay-off, scored the first goal
in the ninth minute. Bobby Charlton celebrated being elected 'Footballer
of the Year' by wrapping up England's victory with another of his
screaming long-range shots. Martin Peters, the player who would be
described by Ramsey as 'ten years ahead of his time', twice went close to
marking his debut with a goal against a highly skilled Yugoslav side. It
was England's last home game before the World Cup and they responded with
a powerful performance that sent a mood of optimism shooting through the
country.
