Reflecting on the evolution of international football, Liberty noted how dramatically the game's atmosphere and global reach have shifted over the last 60 years.
"It was totally different to now," Liberty said.
"Now, we're playing in Mexico, America, and there's fanatical support, it wasn't like that then, there was no hype," Liberty said.
"I appreciated it more back then. It's been a long 60 years.
It was great, we were a little country, everybody had a bit of it, but how lucky we were (to be at) Wembley," Liberty said.

"I was on the close-up camera and I was following Hurst all the way," Coventry said.
