Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Sir Alf Ramsey was shaping his
tactics for the coming defence of the World Cup, and had settled on a
4-4-2 formation with Francis Lee and Geoff Hurst as the two front runners
supported from midfield by Alan Mullery, Alan Ball, Bobby Charlton and
Martin Peters. There was press criticism of the system after England had
struggled to hold Wales, Lee salvaging a draw with a spectacular solo goal
after Dick Krzywicki had given the Welsh a well-deserved lead. Sir
Alf said later that he was satisfied with the performance. 'Everything we
do now is with Mexico in mind,' he said. 'We must adapt the way we play
for the conditions we will meet out there.'
