In 1947 he signed with the Welsh club Wrexham A.F.C., then in the Third Division North of the English Football League, but he only played seven games for them before moving to the US in 1949 to stay with his sister.[5] CareerIn the United States, McIlvenny initially abandoned his football career in order to take an industrial job.[6] He later excelled with the Philadelphia Nationals of the American Soccer League, where he teamed up with US national team captain Walter Bahr. The Nationals won the league, with McIlvenny being declared the competition's outstanding player in June 1949.[7] He was subsequently selected to join the U.S. national team during their 1950 World Cup appearance. He was given the honour of being captain for the game against England "because he was British",[8] and in that game, it was his throw-in that led to the US goal.[10] Although he was not a US citizen, he had declared his intention of becoming one and thus was eligible to play, according to the rules of the United States Soccer Football Association at the time.[8] However, he never did gain citizenship. Earlier that same year, he had played in an All-Star game against Manchester United and his play attracted the attention of United manager Matt Busby, who offered him a spot on the team after the World Cup. Upon his return to England, the English press called him "The Yank from the Tail of the Bank" (a reference to the sand bank that finishes at Greenock).[5] He only had two appearances for them, however, and transferred to Waterford United of the League of Ireland instead. He played for them for four years and then returned to England to play for Headington United, after which he retired from playing and ran a football school. MovieIn 2005, a film directed by David Anspaugh, The Game of Their Lives traced the adventure of this historic match. In the movie The Game of Their Lives that depicted the US victory over England, McIlvenny (played by US soccer player John Harkes) was given a much smaller role and the captainship was given to Walter Bahr (who normally served as captain) instead. McIlvenny's widow, Sheila, was reported as saying: "It's disappointing, but what do you expect from Hollywood?... It is not the true story, not at all. I think he would have accepted it, but I don't think he would have been happy with it because it wasn't the truth."{{citation needed|date=March 2010}} HonorsHe was enshrined in the US National Soccer Hall of Fame, along with the other members of the 1950 World Cup team, in 1976.[5] He is also featured in the Scottish Football Museum.[9] References1. ^{{Hugman|12595|accessdate=15 April 2017}} 2. ^1 http://www.neilbrown.newcastlefans.com/wrexham/wrexham.html 3. ^http://www.neilbrown.newcastlefans.com/manutd/manutd.html 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27701640|title=World Cup: Ed McIlvenny - the Scot who sunk England in 1950|date=23 June 2014|accessdate=23 June 2014|author=Russell Stoddart|publisher=BBC Sport}} 5. ^1 2 {{cite web | url=http://national.soccerhall.org/famers/edward_mcilveney.htm | title=Edward John McIlvenny | publisher=National Soccer Hall of Fame | accessdate=9 November 2005 | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100224155200/http://national.soccerhall.org/famers/edward_mcilveney.htm | archivedate=24 February 2010 | df=dmy-all }} 6. ^{{cite journal |work=Daily Mirror |title=U.S. Soccer star asks for move after two League appearances |date=1951-11-02 |page=10}} 7. ^{{cite journal |work=Philadelphia Inquirer |title=Phila.
