On this day in 1933, Manchester City right-half Matthew Busby made his international debut for Scotland in a 3-2 British Home Championship defeat against Wales at Ninian Park. This would be his only official appearance for Scotland.
Born in the village of Orbiston up in North Lanarkshire, Busby joined City in 1928 at the age of 18. He went on to make over 200 appearances for the club and won the FA Cup in 1934. After eight years in Manchester, the future United boss joined Liverpool. Consistent performances on the pitch earned him the captain’s armband at Anfield.
