The First International Match of …..-Part 3 (Switzerland, 1905)

The ASF (Association Suisse de Football) had been founded in 1895. But like the rest of the continent (except the British Home Nations), it took nearly a decade for them to enter the International arena.
There had been contact with the rest of the continent at club level.  Swiss Selection Teams had also played against their foreign counterparts.
The urge to enter International football intensified with the Founding of FIFA in 1904.
The Swiss officially entered the world of International Football in a Friendly on February 12th, 1905 vs. France at Paris.
Swiss’ first opponents and hosts had played their first ever International Match of their own just months prior in 1904 vs. Belgium (3-3) tie.
This would be their own second ever match and their very first at home.
The Match Organizers USFSA (Union des sociétés françaises de sports athlétiques) and Racing Club de France (RCF) chose the venue to be Paris’ Parc des Princes.
France’s head of the Technical Commission Robert Guerin was also a journalist at ‘Le Matin’ newspaper as well as the Secretary of the Football department at USFSA and most importantly the first President of FIFA.
The Swiss boarded their train in third class. They traveled on Friday night into Saturday (18 hours total) to arrive at Paris.
Their Federation gave each player 12.60 Swiss Francs for pocket money.
Team Captain Edouard Garonne did not accept the money.
Secretary-General Tschudy made the following statement "Mr. Ed. Garrone, Capt. Of the Grasshopper Club, now returns this amount with the remark that the Grasshopper Club does not allow any additional compensation to be paid to its members apart from the travel expenses. " (Something may be lost in the direct translation, my excuses..)

On Saturday the Swiss delegation arrived fresh and rested and at 9 AM were met by officials of USFSA: Mr Espir, Robert Guerin and Ernest Weber.
The Swiss Federation President Schneider (also a FIFA Vice President) visited the capital with the squad. They all went to bed early to be fresh for next day’s match.
Johan Bollinger and Eric Mory joined the squad separately on the morning of the match as they could not be available before.
The French players were called up via the newspaper ‘L’Auto’ on Sunday,  The day of the match!!!!!!
The players as well as the two substitutes were asked to meet at 10 AM at USFSA Headquarters at 229, Rue Saint-Honoré to get to know one another!!
Some players were doing their military service and had to arrive from various locations: Mesnier (from Chateauroux), Canelle (from Rouen), Verlet (from Toul), Allemane (from Chalons-Sur-Marne) and Filez (the only member from the North).

Most of the French contingent had played in their inaugural match vs, Belgium in the previous year. The only debutants were Allemane, Wilkes and Nicolai.
There was a rugby match at the stadium preceding this historic meeting and many felt most of the fans were there for that occasion.
In the Rugby Match, Racing defeated Sporting Club (15-3). Immediately after the match, the goalposts were installed.
The French wore white shirts with Black shorts except Mesnier. USFSA had not provided shorts for the whole squad, as they did not have enough equipment for all the players. As a result the players wore black shorts, however, Louis Mesnier had to wear his own white shorts. The Swiss wore Red Shirts with a White Cross.
The French won the coin toss and the Swiss were to play the first half with the sun in their eyes.

The French started well with Georges Garnier and Fernand Canelle standing out. The Swiss gradually got into the game and created opportunities.  They found the French goalkeeper Maurice Guichard in excellent form. He made many important saves to keep the French in the game.  He was praised as the hero of the match.
The winning goal was scored after an hour of play. Pierre Allemane passed to Marius Royet, who released Gaston Cyprès. Cyprès feigned a cross towards Garnier, but shot in right corner of the Swiss goalkeeper.
Five minutes later, Cyprès scored another goal that was ruled offside by 50 centimeters!
The Swiss pressed hard towards the end but found Guichard unbreachable. Near the end, Guichard even saved on the line an effort by Hans Kampfer.
The French were victorious of their first ever match and made history of their own.
The Swiss praised the speed of the French, while the French praised the Swiss resistance and their understanding and teamwork with one another.

At end of match, the winners were offered a bronze trophy called ‘Société d’encouragement au Football’.
France’s Georges Garnier declared ‘there are no winners nor losers, just two teams who played well’. 
French Newspaper ‘L’Auto’ were very encouraged by the match and felt it had surpassed all expectations.  According to them this match proved the definitive triumph of Association Football in France.
Despite the loss the Swiss had given a good account of themselves. It was a first important step in the Fraternity of International Football.

Note:
1- USFSA stands for (Union des sociétés françaises de sports athlétiques), the French Sports governing body at the time.
2-France’s Marius Royet was killed during World War I in 1915.

Stanley Rous Cup-Part 2 (1986)

The second Edition of the Rous Cup (that had replaced the now defunct Home Championship) took place in 1986.
Both England and Scotland had qualified for the World Cup later that summer in Mexico. As a result, the match also served as part of the preparations.
This was also the first time the match was held at Wembley.
Scotland Manager Jock Stein had died from a heart attack on September 10th, 1985 (during a World Cup qualifier vs. Wales at Cardiff (1-1)) and it was Aberdeen Manager Alex Ferguson who was in charge of the squad until the 1986 World Cup.
French Referee Michel Vautrot took charge of the officiating for the second year in a row.
Scotland’s main absentee was the Liverpool Player-Manager Kenny Dalglish, as well as his clubmate Alan Hansen, who was out of favor with Ferguson.
The Scots were also missing starting goalkeeper Jim Leighton, which allowed former number one Alan Rough an opportunity to start.
The English were missing Captain Bryan Robson, Everton goalscorer Gary Lineker (and future World Cup top goalscorer) as well as John Barnes, Peter Beardsley and Mark Wright. Ray Wilkins captained in the absence of Robson.

The match was typical of previous encounters, made up of rough and physical play and tackling.
The English took the lead in the 27th minute. Glenn Hoddle, in a rare start, lobbed a soft free kick into the box, Alex McLeisch headed it to the side. Steve Hodge headed it back in the goalmouth and Terry Butcher headed it in to open the scoring.
They doubled the lead just before halftime. Chris Waddle, in the middle gave the ball to Kenny Sansom. He took a powerful shot from far away that Alan Rough could only parry and Hoddle headed in the rebound.
In the second half, Scotland made a tactical switch. Roy Aitken was switched to the right side, Richard Gough was pushed up into the midfield and Nicol was deployed as right back.
For England, Peter Reid entered in place of Ray Wilkins.

Scotland were awarded a penalty kick in the 56th minute, when Butcher was adjudged to have fouled Charlie Nicholas in the box. It was somewhat debatable was the foul may have occurred outside of the box. In the process, Nicholas was injured and had to be taken off to be replaced by Pat Nevin.
Graeme Souness scored from the spot to reduce the deficit.
The score remained unchanged and the English defeated Scotland for the first time since 1983.
Stanley Rous passed away on July 18th , 1986. This was the second and last time that this competition took place in his lifetime. There were three remaining Rous Cup Editions (1987, 1988 and 1989) following his death.
This was also the last Edition to feature England and Scotland only. The future Editions would be in a round-robin format featuring a South American guest.
