team notes: |
Manager Alf Ramsey also played against Wales three times between 1950
and 1952. He was the captain in 1950. Bobby Charlton's 31st goal now makes him England's highest goalscorer,
overtaking Tom Finney and Nat Lofthouse. |

Match Report
by Norman Giller |
The
double act of Greaves and Smith was unstoppable. Greaves made a goal in the
fifth minute for Smith who then returned the compliment before the
irrepressible Greaves laid on a second goal for his beefy Tottenham team-mate.
Bobby Charlton finished off the Welsh with his thirty-first goal for England,
beating the record that he had held jointly with Nat Lofthouse and Tom Finney.
'Preston Plumber' Finney was a guest spectator, and said: 'Bobby will go on to
score many goals for England. The record could not be held by a better player
nor a nicer man. He is a credit to the game.' One true gentleman recognizing
another. Bobby Charlton wore the number 11 jersey, but followed Ramsey's orders
and was more withdrawn than usual ... a sign of things to come.
