HOME FOOTBALL
HE NEARLY MISSED HIS TRAIN
wor
Contrary to expectations, Chel- sen, who could only draw with Nottingham Forest at Stamford replay Bridge,
the Cup yesterday by the convincing mar- gin of three clear goals. The win- ners were not so much superior in a general sense, but Chelsea de- served their victory by reason of greater artistry, plus subtlety, in attack.
One of Chelsea's outstanding players was Gallacher. The centre- forward only just caught the train from London to Nottingham; the Forest must have wished before the end of the game that he had missed it, for he scored two goals. While the Forest were no more than ordinary right through the side, Chisea had outstanding players who safed the match from all-round mediocrity...
It was agreed by Nottingham went to people that the victory the.. right side. These spectators

by Graham. In 'some ways a good пос Kraham could centre-half. bring himself to watch Gallacher all the time. And the failure to do this cost his side two goals."
Cover Gallacher Goal After 29 minutes' play a quick Chelsea raid led to a centre from Oakton, which found Gallacher unmarked, and the centre-forward- scored a clever goal,
Again in the early stages of the second half swinging passes saw the ball through to Gallacher, who scored the second goal, The third came ten minutes from the end, scored by Gibson following good work by Callacher,
The story of the goals illustrates the part which Gallacher played In the game, and what more can be expected of a forward than that he should act the match-winner? It may even have been a part of the Gallacher scheme to display cagerness spasmodically.
The other Chelsea forwards each played a part. with Priestley more useful in switching the point of attack.
Forest centre-half,
Unlike the Craig had a very clear-cut Idea of his mission-to close the gap to goal down the centre. There was no opening at all for Dent.
Craig and Gallacher did most 'to' take Chelsea into the next round. They had another real stalwart in Barber, the right-back, Scorning the handicap of an injury over the exe-which was stitched at the interval-Barber did not give a hint of weakness. So well was Woodley covered that the goal- keeper scarcely had an moment throughout the game.

Arsenal's defeat does not come as a surprise to close followers of the game. The writing has been on the wall for some time; their attack is not good enough to carry their them along. So long, as wonderful defence stood up to a Bruelling In match after match there was hope of a breakaway But goal and a snap victory. sooner or later the defence was bound to crack.

In addition, Milsom, who scored three goals, led the forwards in splendid style.
The Albion scored in the twenty- third minute, Attwood beading the ball so skilfully that the best Jones the Bolton goalkeeper, could do was to knock the ball against Finney, off whom it rebounded Into the net.

Manchester City owed much to the opportunism of Tilson in their replay with Hull City at Maine- road Rather lucky to be leading by a goal at the interval, the City did not reveal their best form until the game was won and lost.
Four goals came in 19 minutes after the interval, when the dash of Tilson completely upset the Hull defence. But it was his second goal, 20 minutes from the end, that really settled the match.
When Tilson shot through fol- lowing a pass by Marshall with the second half a quarter of an hour But old, the match seemed over. most of the thrills were to follow. Only seven more minutes had gone the when McNaughton reduced arrears following a free kick, "and >the crowd were fully prepared for an equaliser, with Hill setting Hull a lead in an all-attack policy. *HULL'S EIGHT FORWARDS": Half-backs moved up, making eight forwards, and the backs wandered far up in support of what was to be a storming assault. But these tactics led to Hull's own undoing. Brook went away and centred square for Tlison to drive the ball home;
This goal took all the heart out of Hull, and it was no surprise when Marshall put on a fourth goal eleven minutes from the end after more great work by Tilson. Toseland scored the only goal of the first half 18 minutes after the start when a Arst-time drive hit
