EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the excitement of the first international football match played in Scotland, between Scotland and England, on 30th November 1872. The game took place at the West of Scotland Cricket Club Ground in Partick, near Glasgow, making it the first time Football Association rules were used in a Scottish setting. The importance of this event cannot be overstated, as it marked the beginning of a rich footballing tradition in Scotland and helped to establish the sport as a popular pastime across the British Isles. Despite the high stakes and the intense rivalry between the two nations, the match ended in a goal-less draw. The players, dressed in their respective jerseys and wearing caps, can be seen in this image, focused intently on the game as they battle for possession of the ball on the muddy field. The stands are filled with spectators, who watch the action unfold with great interest, some even leaning over the fence for a closer look. The scene is completed by the large scoreboard in the background, which displays the time elapsed and the current score. This photograph is an invaluable record of an important moment in football history, and a testament to the enduring passion for the sport that exists between Scotland and England to this day. The image is taken from 'Illustrations from the Scotland vs. England Friendly of 30th November 1872' and is a reminder of the early days of international football, before the sport became the global phenomenon it is today.
