Match Report

|
 Geoff Hurst was again a
hat-trick hero, this time two of his goals against an outclassed French
side coming from the penalty spot. Francis Lee scored his first goal for
England and Mike O'Grady, recalled after six years in the wilderness, was
also on the mark. Terry Cooper was Keith Newton's new left-back partner as
Ramsey continued his search for a duo to compare with Cohen and Wilson. It
was a relief for Sir Ramsey to find his forwards on the
mark after only four goals in the previous six internationals. There were
two Wembley milestones. This was England's 100th
victory against overseas opponents, and Hurst's goal was the 200th
by England at the twin-towered cathedral of English football.
