Match Report

|
 Bobby Charlton, a Munich survivor, electrified the first of his 106
England appearances with a classical goal when he connected with a Tom
Finney cross on the volley to send it flashing into the Scotland net from
the edge of the penalty area. His wonder strike came in the sixty-second
minute after Bryan Douglas had headed England into a first-half lead and
then laid on the first of two goals for Derek Kevan. Fulham's Jim Langley
made a commendable debut in place of the sadly missed Roger Byrne, with
Wolverhampton's Bill Slater taking on the impossible job of following
Duncan Edwards. The nearest Scotland came to scoring was when a Jackie
Mudie header hit the bar midway through the second-half, by which time
England were sitting on a cushion of three goals. Kevan wrapped it up for
England fifteen minutes from the end after Johnny Haynes, Bobby Charlton
and Bill Slater had cut open the Scottish defence with a procession of
precise passes.
