(4: 4, 3: 1) | 1: 0 Leônidas (18th) 1: 1 Scherfke (23rd) 11m 2: 1 Romeu (25th) 3: 1 Perácio (44th) 3: 2 Willimowski (53rd) 3: 3 Willimowski (59th) 4 : 3 Perácio (71.) 4: 4 Willimowski (89.) 5: 4 Leônidas (93.) 6: 4 Leônidas (104.) 6: 5 Willimowski (118.) |
The close 6: 5 nV of Brazil against Poland was little expected. Only when the four-time Brazilian goalscorer, Leonidas, took off his shoes in extra time, scored the goal to make it 5-4 and served Romeo to make it 6-4, the Brazilians had victory in their pockets. The fourth goal of the Polish half-left Willimowski (118th) came too late.
