	Geoff Hurst - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hurst was born in the Lake Hospital Ashton-under-Lyne, Lancashire but moved with his family to Essex at the age of five.
		Hurst played one first-class cricket match for Essex, against Lancashire at Aigburth in 1962, although it was not a successful outing: he made 0 not out in the first innings, and was bowled by Colin Hilton, again for 0, in the second.
		Hurst settled into international football quickly but as the World Cup approached, it seemed clear that his inclusion in Ramsey's squad of 22 would merely be as a different option to the first choice partnership of Jimmy Greaves and Roger Hunt.

		Geoff Hurst secured his place among the World Cup greats when he became the first player to score a hat-trick in a World Cup final (the feat has not been repeated in eight tournaments since).

		Hurst's sporting talents were not restricted to football - he also made one appearance for Essex in the County Championship, against Lancashire in 1962.

		Where Hurst’s striking rival, Greaves, offered flashes of brilliance mixed with bouts of anonymity, his constant presence, work ethic and superb aerial ability – illustrated by his match-winner against Argentina and the glancing header beyond Hans Tilkowski for England’s equaliser against the West Germans – were more aligned with Alf Ramsey’s tastes.
		It was testament to Hurst’s enthusiasm that he emerged in 1970 from the crushing disappointment of Mexico as one of his country’s better performers.
		Scarcely a day goes by without a reminder of Hurst’s deeds of 40 years ago – he assisted Ron Greenwood as England coach from 1977 to 1982 and was deservedly knighted in 1998.
