Where are they now?: Terry Dyson

THE Cup-Winners' Cup became the first European trophy to be won by a British team when, in May 1963, Tottenham Hotspur thrashed Atletico Madrid 5-1 in the final in Rotterdam.

Terry Dyson, their 5ft 4in winger, played the game of his life, scoring twice and laying on one of two goals for his room-mate, Jimmy Greaves.

Dyson's first goal was a fluke, an intended cross that eluded the goalkeeper; the second dazzled the crowd with its brilliance, a 30-yard run capped by a superb shot. 'I was striding forward and they were all backing away from me,' he recalls. 'When I was about 25 yards out, I hit the ball and it screamed into the corner.'

Born in Malton, Yorkshire, the son of a jockey, Dyson played for Scarborough in the Midland League but national service caused him to move to Woolwich, where Spurs spotted him. He joined Fulham in 1965 and then Colchester, before becoming a PE teacher in Hampstead.

Now he teaches children with behavioural problems at Bushey, Hertfordshire. Aged 57, he lives in Kenton, Middlesex, and plays tennis 'two or three times a week'.
