How the Echo reported England's 9-3 thrashing of Scotland


WE couldn't resist reproducing the Echo's back page from 60 years ago today as it features a report on England's greatest ever victory over Scotland, 9-3 with Jimmy Greaves scoring a hat-trick - or "doing the hat-trick" as the report says.

The report also says that Scotland's keeper, Frank Haffney, had a "nightmare" and should have saved at least three goals. His performance 60 years ago is said to have created an unenviable reputation for Scottish goalkeepers ever since. The victory was hailed as indicating England's great chances in the 1962 World Cup which was held in Chile, only they disappointed, going out at the quarter final stage to the eventual champions, Brazil.
