Odd picture this. In the write up it says we 'entertained' Manu and won 3-1. Considering we were at home I don't remember that scoreboard.
"Harry Catterick's men entertained Sir Matt Busby's side on the opening day of the 1967/68 campaign looking to make a statement against the team that had won the previous season's league title and would nine months later become the first English team to lift the European Cup.
Alan Ball gave the Blues an early lead, tapping in from close range after Joe Royle's knock-back and added a second midway through the second half after Colin Harvey's surge tore the visitor's defence open.
A shell-shocked United were then completely undone by some Alec Young magic as the Scottish forward expertly controlled Ball's pass and weaved between two defenders before smashing a magnificent finish beyond Stepney.
Bobby Charlton added a late consolation but the Goodison faithful went home happy with their first taste of live football after the long summer break".
