Summary

MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Spurs for the Final. DESCRIPTION: There were nearly 70,000 at Villa Park to see Spurs v Burnley. Burnley kicked off, and the crowd roared away as the semi-final got going. After half an hour of give and take, it was first blood to Spurs. Burnley came back very strongly in search of an equaliser and kept on attacking. But it wasn’t their day. Soon afterwards, Bobby Smith scored again to put Spurs two up. And, near the end, they got their third. It was Spurs for Wembley. SHOTLIST: Key scene. TS crowd GV same. MS Spurs supporters.
