Played according to the Welsh FA rules
An experimental law was introduced, that empowers the referee to award a
goal in cases where, in his opinion, a goal has been prevented from a
deliberate handball by the defending team. It lasts one season only,
and it is unknown as to whether it resulted in any England goals in 1881-82.

team notes: |
The original starting eleven was the same starting eleven originally
chosen to begin the Scotland match two days prior to this match. And
like the Scotland match,
Old Carthusians FC's
James Prinsep withdrew
because of injury, his place going to Hunter. Parry, this time, took the place of Royal Engineers FC's
Bruce Bremner Russell.
Charlie Bambridge 'had to retire, receiving
a dislocation during a scrimmage' after only three minutes play and left the field, leaving England to battle with only ten men. |

After Bambridge was withdrawn, Brown
