Oct 13, 2013 · Finals Squad. The squad was the product of a rather protracted winnowing process. FIFA required that each national side provide a list of forty players before the end of May 1966 and a final squad of 22 players by July 3, eight days before the tournament began. Alf Ramsey named his provisional list of forty players on April 7, almost two months ...

The game began rather tensely, with fouls on both sides. Nobby Stiles hacked down Roberto Ferreiro and escaped punishment. Still, within half an hour, four of the Argentines had found their way into the referee’s notebook– Antonio Rattin and Roberto Perfumo for fouls, Jorge Solari for kicking the ball away at a free-kick, and Luis Artime for a triv...

Referee Rudolf Kreitlein did not get off lightly. Peter Wilsonin the...
