"The final warm-up match before the 1962 World Cup finals was notable for a hat-trick from Jimmy Greaves and the cool, commanding debut performance of twenty-one-year-old West Ham wing-half Bobby Moore. Ron Flowers gave England the lead from the penalty spot before Greaves scored his three goals. Jimmy also put a shot against a post and Johnny Haynes hit the crossbar. Ron Springett saved a spot-kick to become the first England goalkeeper to make two penalty saves. Tottenham centre-half Maurice Norman made his bow at the heart of the defence after Peter Swan had pulled out with tonsilitis."
