Uruguay vs Colombia
Colombians opened the score midway through the first half when Francisco Zuluaga converted a penalty. Uruguayan harsh tackling led to Zuluaga's injury. In the second half Uruguay could come back from behind with Luis Cubilla and José Sasía's shots.[2]

Soviet Union vs Yugoslavia
The Soviet Union were generally in command of the game. Soon after halftime they opened the score when Viktor Ponedelnik hit the bar with a free kick and Valentin Ivanov headed in the rebound. In the last minutes Ponedelnik scored himself from the edge of the area.[2] Ten minutes from time Eduard Dubinski was carried away with a broken leg after a clash with Muhamed Mujić who was sent home by his team for that bad foul.[3][4]
