Match Report
by Derek Wallis, Daily Mirror,
Thursday, 17
March 1960 |
GEORGE EASTHAM, frail looking inside right, smoothed the way for England
with a stream of choice passes that ought to have scattered the Dutch
defence in this Under-23 international at Hillsborough last night. England
commanded the first half, but the Dutch defence covered superbly. And in
breakaway attacks their inside trio, passing quickly and cleverly, often
left the England halves floundering. It was from just such a slashing move
after seven minutes that Holland took the lead. England's defence was
ripped wide open when in a few rapid strides, inside left Prins took a
return pass from Groot and hammered a peach of a shot past Macedo. In
twenty-one minutes, England won a penalty when Jimmy Greaves, speeding
through the area, was brought down as two Dutch defenders closed in.
Eastham took the spot kick and hit it coolly and leisurely into the net.
Greaves put England in the lead from a free-kick in the forty-ninth
minute. Captain Maurice Setters shaped as if to take it, but ran over the
ball and Greaves slammed it into the net. One minute later, centre forward
Joe Baker made it 3—1 with a back header which Jongbloed, the Dutch
goalkeeper, should have saved. But Holland scored in the very next minute
through Prins. Then, in the fifty-eighth minute, another goal by baker
made it 4-2 to England.
Paine scored England's final goal.

Match Report
as appears in the F.A. Yearbook 1960-61 page 36 |
Prins opened the scoring for the
Netherlands after 7 minutes, and a quarter of an hour later Eastham
equalised from a penalty kick. Goals from Baker (2) and Greaves, with
another from Prins in between, gave England a 4-2 lead early in the second
half, which Paine increased near the end, Setters and Cohen both excelled,
while Greaves was a menace in attack, though he never reached the form he
had shown at Ibrox. Once again Baker did well at centre-forward, Eastham
was a clever schemer, and Paine, introduced at outside-right, certainly
justified his choice. Macedo could not be faulted.
