team notes: |
Injury prevented Fulham FC's
Johnny Haynes to take his place at inside-right. Broadbent taking
his place on 4 April.
Ray Wilson played all but two minutes of this
match with a broken nose, following a collision with Leggat.
On
describing earning the first penalty awarded
"[Charlton] was intercepted by an apparently ordinary tackle from
McKay in the 49th minute, the outside-left collapsed with theatrical
thoroughness, like a character who had swallowed poision in the third
act of a victorian melodrama." - The Scotsman, Monday, 11 April
1960. |

 Tottenham brought the club-or-country issue to boiling point by refusing
to release their three Scots, Dave Mackay, Bill Brown and John White, for
this match. The referee awarded fifty-five free-kicks and three penalties,
two of which were missed. Bobby Charlton converted from the penalty spot,
and failed to find the net with a second twice-taken penalty. Graham
Leggat, partnered by lan St John and Denis Law, scored Scotland's goal
following a suicidal back pass from Bill Slater. This gave Scotland a
half-time lead over England for the first time since the war, but
Charlton's successful second-half penalty meant they had now gone since
1937 without beating the auld enemy on home territory. Ray Wilson,
starting his distinguished England career at left-back, played on despite
collecting a broken nose in the second minute, and Joe Baker battled on
with a dislocated shoulder. Surely somebody would one day see the sense
for substitutes, even if only for injured players?
