2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

We're saving that for part three, but wait for that.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And France have to win this game to qualify.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

So they're going to be a lot more open.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

So suddenly, rather than having Uruguay sitting deep in the opening game, you've got a team that are coming out to play.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

So it's going to be a lot easier.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And France aren't the powerhouse that obviously they will be.

in the late 90s and sort of subsequently in this century.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

So England expected to win.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And this feels like, OK, we're now getting somewhere.

2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

And you think he is hiding his grand master plan for the latter stages.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

It's not like he's got a settled side and he knows who the winger is.

The Overlap
2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

Like the old wingback.

2: Football's Coming Home: How England Won The 1966 World Cup | Part Two

With fullbacks now, you tend to try and rest them because you're asking so much of them.
