The 1961 FA Charity Shield was the 39th FA Charity Shield. The match was contested on 12 August 1961 between double winners Tottenham Hotspur and a Football Association (F.A.) representative eleven. Tottenham won the match 3–2. In the 1960–61 season, Tottenham had become the first club since Aston Villa in 1897 to complete the Double, that is, to win the FA Cup and Division One in the same season. 〔 (Football: Multiple Trophy Winners ) krysstal.com. Accessed 08–08–10 〕 The Charity Shield, which was first contested in 1908, is conventionally held between the previous season's league champions and the FA Cup winners. 〔 (The Shield – A brief history ). TheFA.com. Accessed 08–08–10 〕 Thus Tottenham's double victory in 1960–1961 presented a new problem for the FA in organising the 1961 Charity Shield. By way of resolution, Tottenham competed against a representative side who played under the banner of the FA. 〔 (1961/62 Charity Shield ) Footballsite.co.uk Accessed 08–08–10〕 This team was, in practice, the contemporary England national team, without the Tottenham players who might usually have played. 〔 The Times. 14-08-1961. Tottenham Football Back in the Old Routine 〕 Tottenham started the match poorly when Johnny Haynes scored the opening goal after ten minutes. 〔 Tottenham equalised five minutes before half time through Bobby Smith, and Les Allen scored two second half goals for Spurs to put them 3–1 ahead. Johnny Byrne scored the second goal for the F.A., resulting in a 3–2 victory for Tottenham. 〔 The 1961 Charity Shield was the last time, to date, that the match has featured a team that was not a club side. The 1971 Double winning Arsenal team were unable to compete, so FA Cup runners-up Liverpool played against Division Two champions Leicester City. In the 1986 Charity Shield, following Liverpool's Double-winning 1985–1986 season, league runners-up Everton were chosen as opponents. This practice has been followed in all subsequent years where a team has won the Double. ==Match details== |} 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1961 FA Charity Shield」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
