team notes: |
Jack Goodall was the original inside-right, he replaced
Blackburn
Rovers FC's
Jack Southworth at centre-forward, who had a leg injury. James Whitehead was then added
as the new inside-right.
Everton FC's
Edgar Chadwick and
Alf Milward were replaced on the left by Schofield and Spikesley.
They were needed for their club's FA Cup semi-final appearance.
Jack Reynolds had already played five times for the Irish team,
scoring once (1890-91 (two appearances and one goal against England))
This equals the oldest team England have fielded.
Confusion reigned
as to who scored the final goal. The Times and Sporting Life credit
Schofield.The Sportsman, The Field, Manchester Guardian, Liverpool
Mercury say Spikesley put in the rebound after Trainer saved
Schofield's shot. |
