SEMIFINALS
26.07.30 Montevideo Argentina 6-1 USA
27.07.30 Montevideo Uruguay 6-1 Yugoslavia
No match for third place; in contemporary newspapers appearing in Yugoslavia early
September it is claimed Yugoslavia were awarded the third place for having lost to
the eventual winners rather than the runners-up, supposedly in accordance with
Olympic regulations (a rather curious statement as the Olympic football tournament
always had featured a bronze medal match except in ‹1920, see page ol1920f-det› when the set-up was rather
more involved); no official stance of FIFA is known on this - in 1984 an official
FIFA report claimed Yugoslavia beat the USA 3-1 in a match for third place but that
is nonsense (no official match between the two countries, friendly or otherwise, was
played before the ‹1956 Olympic Games, see page ol1956f›); according to the rules applied in later World
Cup tournaments (comparing the overall records of teams eliminated at the same stage),
the USA would be third (for having conceded one goal less in their three matches).
