• Short Summary

    Scotland beat England 1 - 0 in an International Football Match.

  • Description

    Titles read: "INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL - ENGLAND V SCOTLAND AT WEMBLEY".

    Wembley, London.

    High angle views of the hundreds of Scottish supporters in the stand at Wembley football ground. They are singing 'Loch Lomond' and some are banging frying pans (this is apparently a tradition relating to sporrans!). Various shots of the match in play. Scotland scores a goal and wins by 1- 0. On the soundtrack we can hear a Scottish voice calling out encouragement to the team.

    Bill Shankly made his Scotland debut in this game, (as did my great uncle Davie Cumming in goal).
    This was also the first ever full game televised live, (broadcast by the BBC... who had done a fifteen minute practice with, bizarrely, an Arsenal Reserves game not long before).

    I'm getting no sound from the mpg, there is sound on the wmv?

    The game was played on 9 April 1938.

    The Scotland goal can be seen at 00:34, and is scored by Tommy Walker.
