Match Report

Francis Lee made his first England appearance alongside his Manchester
City team-mate Colin Bell, and his thrusting runs down the right wing were
a continual source of danger to a packed Bulgarian defence. There were
also first England caps for goalkeeper Gordon West and Leeds full-back
Paul Reaney, who came on as a substitute for injured Keith Newton. Geoff
Hurst scored England's goal, and the Bulgarians replied with a magnificent
solo goal by powerful centre-forward Asparuhov.
