Match Report
by Ken Jones, Daily Mirror,
Thursday, 19 May 1960 |
ENGLAND'S battling Soccer babes have done it again.
In a tense,
nail-biting clash here tonight, they whipped Young Poland to send our
prestige rocketing sky high in this Iron Curtain city. And I repeat that
the Poles were whipped, despite the dramatic last half-hour, when England
were hanging on to their tight 3—2 lead. For it was only three
super-saves by Polish keeper Kornek, and atrocious luck in front of goal
that stopped England grabbing a bagful. The Poles
had tried everything, including the now wearisome Soccer confidence trick
of bringing on a substitute without the formality of an injury.
In the first half, they brought on mystery man Syckta in place of
inside-left Gasz. Later an F A official said: "Is it any wonder that we
don't allow substitutes in England?" The most sparkling feature of this
England win, was our domination in every phase of Soccer technique. For
once we had the players who could match Continental ball skill . . .
players like pencil-slim inside right George Eastham, inside left Peter
Dobing and left winger Eddie Holliday. They were
the Soccer charmers—not the red-shirted Poles. And the
30,000 shirt-sleeved crowd were not lacking in appreciation. The cheers
were for England skill, like the fantastic left wing run that took
Holliday past three defenders. For Eastham's shot to finish just inches
wide of a post. Like the jinking Eastham run that opened up the Polish
defence as wide as Warsaw Square only for 'keeper Kornek to beat out his
shot with a daring dive. England got the boost of a tenth minute goal when
Eastham casually slid home a penalty kick after Tony Kay had been sent
sprawling. But a fantastic decision by referee Kiriakov helped to put the
Poles level. Kay challenged for a ball in the air and for no apparent
reason Kiriakov pointed to the spot, and up came left back Kawula to
hammer home the equaliser. Three minutes later the Poles pulled their fast
one with substitute Syckta, despite a protest by England team manager Ron
Greenwood. Greenwood told me later: "What can you do about it. The only
answer is to put the ball in the back of the net." And
that's what outside right Gerry Mannion did within a minute of this
touchline barney. Holliday scythed his way down the left wing,
crossed the ball to the far post and Mannion scored with a typical
Wolves-type header. Two minutes before half time came the goal of the
match from Maurice Setters, England's chunky, successful skipper. From a
free-kick Dobing sold a dummy, Kay pushed the ball square and Setters
blasted it in. But in the fifty-second minute, the Poles cut the lead. A
defensive slip let in right winger Wilczek, and inside right Myga brushed
aside two defenders to nod in. Now the battle was
on, with England beginning to tire. The Poles seemed to have
grabbed the equaliser when centre forward Lerch finished off a goalmouth
scramble. But referee Kiriakov gave him offside. We breathed again and
Young England held on for their second win of this tough, three-game tour.

Match Report
as appears in the F.A. Yearbook 1960-61 page 38 |
In Warsaw Young England, for whom
Mannion played at outside-right in place of Paine, scored another brilliant
victory. After 10 minutes, clever midfield play between Dobing and Eastham
led to the first goal from a penalty-kick taken by Eastham, after Kay had
been brought down when moving through to score. Twenty-two minutes later
Poland equalised through Kawula from a penalty-kick. Further goals were
scored for England by Mannion and Setters but Poland reduced the lead 5
minutes after halftime through Myga. England was sound in all departments,
but none played better than Eastham in attack, and Miller in defence,
while Setters was, as usual, an effective driving force.
