This is not Billy Wright, the former England captain. He retired from playing in 1959 and so the date of 1963 doesn't fit, yet alone that it simply does not look a thing like him! Wolvesweb (talk) 11:16, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The football match between former players from the Dutch and English teams was played in the Groninger Oosterparkstadion on 29 May 1963. The game ended in a draw: 4-4 (Lofthouse 0-1, van der Hart 1-1, Wilkes 2-1, Lofthouse 2-2, Finney 2-3, Wilkes (via Hassall) 3-3, Finney 3-4, van der Hart 4-4). England line-up: Ditchburn. Bands & Sillet. Wright, Bentley & Burgess. Jezzard, Rowley, Lofthouse, Hassall en Finney. So if the man in white isn't Wright, it should be one of the others.
