VERDICT ON THE INTERNATIONAL

By PETER DITTON

When is a penalty not a penalty? That is the question 100,000 spects fans were asking after the International between England and

Austria.

Jadeed, it was only one of many questions which will be debated long after the players involved in the game have hung up their boots for the last time,

Hat question qualifies the fact that England's record of 50 years' invin- cible, cominst foreign teams on home soil still stonds. That is a great record and full marks to Billy Wright and his colleagues for preserving it.
