Wales v Northern Ireland at the Racecourse Ground, Wrexham

At one stage Wales looked the likeliest of all the British nations to qualify for the World Cup finals.

For his opposite number, Billy Bingham , the game provides the final chance to experiment before Northern Ireland's opening World Cup game against Yugoslavia on 17 June.
