Match Report
by Norman Giller |
The old West Ham double act of Hurst
and Peters sunk the Scots with two goals each, the second of Hurst's goals
coming from a thunderous penalty that many observers considered the
hardest they had ever seen a ball hit from the spot. Colin Stein scored to
make it 2-1 at half-time, and the final scoreline was harsh on a Scottish
team powerfully driven from midfield by Billy Bremner and Archie Gemmill.
The victory put England in just the right mood for their fact-finding tour
in preparation for their 1970 World Cup defence.
