UEFA Amateur Championship Group Results 1967 [Reference: 1]

Report

Republic of Ireland entered the UEFA European Amateur Championship in 1967, which was designed to run alongside the Olympic Qualifying Tournament, and was for the Amateur National Teams of Countries with Professional or Semi-Professional Soccer Leagues, therefore confining the tournament to Non-Communist Block Countries, which had sent what was essentially their full National Teams to the Olympic Tournament.

The Communist Block Countries players were officially Amateur, though in practice they were paid to play Football, and did not work in the Factories as was the intention. The Qualifying started in February 1967 in Perth, Scotland, and the Finals were played in June 1967 in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.

Republic of Ireland were placed in a Qualifying Group alongside Scotland and Wales, losing both matches to Scotland 4-0, before defeating Wales 2-1 away, but losing the return fixture 0-1 at home. The quaility of the Scottish side is evident, as they went on to reach the Final, played in Palma de Mallorca (Spain), losing 2-1 to Austria. Host Nation, Spain, won the third place playoff 2-0 against Turkey. In all 12 Nations entered the competition.

Ireland had high hopes in this tournament, and were on top of the group after the first day, goals from Declan McGuinness and Michael Grace giving the boys in green a 2-0 win over Scotland.

Ireland were leading 1-0 over England in the second game until time added on, when England scored an equaliser through Wiggans. Ireland’s goal had been scored by Michael grace on the hour mark.
