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 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 3rd place but that is obvious nonsense (no official match between the two countries, friendly or otherwise, was played before the 1956 Olympic Games); 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 3rd (for having conceded one goal less in their three matches).
