substitute notes: |
Alan Mullery becomes the second player to earn an England appearance
twice as a substitute, following Geoff Hurst in January 1970. Record
sixth substitution made in 1969-70 season. |
team notes: |
Manager Alf Ramsey played against Scotland in four matches from 1950
until 1953. Manchester City manager Joe Mercer had requested that Sir Alf Ramsey
not pick his players, Francis Lee and Colin Bell, so that they may be
fit for City's Cup Winners Cup Final tie in Vienna in a week. |

Match Report
by Norman Giller |
This was England's final game before
flying off for the World Cup warm-up games in South America, and the Scots
were hell bent on giving them a morale-sapping defeat as a farewell
present. England were equally determined not to be beaten and the game
became bogged down in a midfield stalemate. A buffeting wind whipped
around Hampden and made ball control difficult, robbing the 137,438
spectators of what had been an anticipated classic. The game produced the
first goalless draw between Scotland and England since the first ever
international football match between them back in
1872.
