From match reports in the Daily Mirror, Daily Express and Birmingham Post, I've gleaned the following information:
It was only 45 minutes in duration.
Alan Peacock (2) and Jimmy Greaves scored.
Ray Wilson was due to play but pulled out at the last minute due to an ankle injury. Don Howe took Wilson's place.
Jimmy Armfield captained England. |

That's all of the information that was reported. Couldn't find anything in The Times.
No mention of it being an under-23 game, but it was talked about as being a warm up for the Wales game. Armfield, Wilson, Peacock and Howe were well over 23, and Walter Winterbottom was in charge of the team. I would say that it was a full England side that played. |
