Summary

MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: England V Mexico. DESCRIPTION: It was a fine afternoon for the international at Wembley. In fact, it turned out too hot for the visitors! Mexico kicked off against the white-shirted English eleven, who took the initiative at once. The Mexicans were left standing, and could do nothing about it.
