Northern Ireland v Albania 1965 – Plus George Best
This original football programme comes from the Northern Ireland v Albania match on Friday 7 May 1965. Northern Ireland came out on top in this World Cup qualifier game, which ended Northern Ireland 4-1 Albania.
This is a Northern Ireland football programme. Northern Ireland's goals came from Crossan (3) (pen.) and Best in front of a crowd of 16,017 at Windsor Park.
It would make a fine addition to any collection of football memorabilia.
