Soccer International - England V. Scotland (1955)

[@ianbolan3488]

At the 1954 world cup the Scottish goal keeper Fred Martin was told by the SFA oh ignore the world cup just so long as we beat England.

Did he really say 60 yards?

[@johnnycumlately4295]

Just 35 yards out...but a cracking goal anyway.

[@derosabike]

60 yards would be from inside his own half (average pitch = 115 yards long)

[@smfvmd]

Just under 30 yards.
