Summary

MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: England V Luxembourg. DESCRIPTION: England met Luxembourg at Highbury in their World Cup tie. Aware of England’s nine-nought win in the first leg, the crowd didn’t seem to think a lot of England’s start here. Wild shots over the bar and fine saves by Steffen, that’s how it went. Luxembourg not only held out against the fantastic bombardment, they nearly had England in trouble on occasions. But the result was a four-one victory for England. SHOTLIST: GV match in progress.
