On this day in 1955, England hammered Scotland 7-2 at Wembley with four of the goals coming from Wolverhampton Wanderers legend Dennis Wilshaw.
He remains the only Englishman to ever score four goals against the Scots. The 1954-55 British Home Championship game saw Wilshaw open the scoring in the first minute before netting a hat-trick in the second half. Nat Lofthouse scored a brace and Don Revie added another to bring England’s total to seven while Scotland could only respond with two.
The game also marked the debut of Manchester United legend Duncan Edwards who at the age of 18 years and 183 days became England’s youngest ever debutant since the Second World War.
