Match Report

|
A cannonball shot from Geoff Hurst midway through the first-half put England
in charge of a match dominated by the attacking midfield trio of Alan
Ball, Colin Bell and Martin Peters. Martin Chivers wrapped up the victory
with a last-minute goal to clinch England's place in the quarter-finals of
the European championship. Francis Lee twice hit the post, and the final
scoreline flattered a Greek team now under the management of 1958 Northern
Ireland World Cup hero Billy Bingham. Waiting for England in the
quarter-finals were Franz Beckenbauer's West German side, and a re-match
at Wembley.
