Match Report
by Norman Giller |
|
 Bryan Douglas had a storming game, and three
of the four England goals came from his crosses. Bobby Robson, winning his
first cap, scored two goals as did Tommy Taylor. Tragically, they were to
be his last for England. The game was so one sided that it was almost
reduced to French farce, with England hammering in twenty shots to none
from France in the last twenty minutes. Only one of them produced a goal,
Bobby Robson hitting the back of the net at the end of a seven-man
movement to underline his arrival as a force in international football.
Three months later England lost three of their major players, Roger Byrne,
Duncan Edwards and Tommy Taylor, to the Munich air crash that devastated
the Manchester United team.
