Cracking question and I have no idea. Reckon we'll have held a few early days ish. So England v Scotland and 4 - 3 

 

@KivoOwl will probably smash these types of questions

Have to try harder than that 🤷‍♂️

 

I'm barred on this one an' all  :biggrin:

But football was a lot simpler back in 1962 (five years before I saw my first Wednesday match)

Qualification for the Euros were knock-out ties played over two legs - months apart

There were no 'away goals rule' and ties went to a third game at a neutral venue if the scores were level

The Finals in 1964 consisted of four teams = three games plus a 3rd/4th playoff

 

I wouldn't have known any of this without good ol' Wiki   :rolleyes:

But it shows how much easier it is these days for fairly average players to clock up loads of cheap international caps
