I have to say that second try from GB was a beautiful piece of play.

Entertaining running football and healthy international competition in those days.

Great footage from a bygone age.

Was a different type of game in a different era. Players today are fitter and more “professional” but many lack spontaneity and creativity. And... Bring back the biff!

I didn't realise Eddie was commentating back in the 1950s.
