Match Report
by Norman Giller |
Greece arrived for this European championship qualifying match without any
of the their star players from PanAthínaikos, who were being saved for a
European Cup semi-final. A superbly struck goal by Martin Chivers was all
that separated the teams at half-time, and it took late headed goals by
Geoff Hurst and Francis Lee to clinch victory and silence the jeers of a
frustrated crowd. Peter 'Cold Eyes' Storey got his first England
call up as reward for his consistent performances for an Arsenal team on
the way to a League and FA Cup double. A hard-tackling midfield ball
winner for the Gunners, he went back to his original position of
right-back for his first taste of international football.
