Notes
Tony Towers hit the post with a penalty in the 59th minute. WBA keeper Osborne, injured earlier in the game and hobbling, swapped shirts with Gordon Nisbet for the kick, then went back in goal afterwards! He was finally substituted in the 84th minute after the third goal, with Nisbet going back in goal again for the last few minutes.
