Match Report
by Norman Giller |
The Irish, with George Best and Derek Dougan in menacing mood, battled
desperately to overcome England in their first match as world champions,
but they were sunk by a goal in each half by first Roger Hunt and then
Martin Peters. The match deteriorated into a bad tempered encounter, and
in the closing minutes Linfield winger Billy Ferguson was ordered off
after a savage tackle on Alan Ball. Bobby Moore's attention during
the build up to the match was claimed by the Inland Revenue, who announced
they would be taxing the £1,000 bonus collected by each of the 22
players in England's World Cup winning squad. On behalf of the team,
skipper Bobby took the Taxman to the steps of the law courts before they
relented and agreed to make it tax free. What a way to treat heroes.
