In the second half, Spanish players played more complacently. Leônidas pulled one back for Brazil, then he scored again moments later, but the goal was disallowed for offside. Later, Ricardo Zamora saved a penalty from Waldemar de Brito. 1934 5 27 y 16:00 CET (UTC+01:00) ESP 1931 1934 FIFA World Cup final tournament#Spain vs Brazil 3–1 BRA 1889 Iraragorri 18 pen. 25 Lángara 29 Leônidas 55 Stadio Luigi Ferraris, Genoa 21,000 Alfred Birlem (Germany) https://www.fifa.com/en/match-centre/match/17/3/204/1111 Spain vs Brazil Preliminary Round 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy FIFA 1 May 2026 http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=204/match=1111/index.html 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy – Matches – Spain v Brazil FIFA 1 May 2026 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20171212131334/http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=204/match=1111/index.html 12 December 2017 _esp3138 _esp2124 ED1C24 ED1C24 ED1C24 003060 000000 Spain _blueborder _bluecollar_2 _blueborder _brasil1930 ffffff ffffff ffffff 0000FF 000000 Brazil GK Ricardo Zamora (c)RB CiriacoLB Jacinto QuincocesRH Leonardo CilaurrenCH José MuguerzaLH Martín MarculetaOR LafuenteIR José IraragorriIL Simón LecueOL Guillermo GorostizaCF Isidro LángaraManager:Amadeo García300pxGK Roberto Gomes PedrosaRB Sylvio HoffmannLB Luiz LuzRH Alfredo Alves TinocoCH Martim Silveira (c)LH Heitor CanalliOR LuisinhoIR Waldemar de BritoIL LeônidasOL PateskoCF ArmandinhoManager:Luiz Vinhaes Assistant referees: Ettore Carminati (Italy) Mihály Ivanicsics (Hungary) Hungary vs Egypt Hungary scored twice in 31 minutes.

Switzerland took an early lead thanks to Leopold Kielholz finishing off a good piece of play from André Abegglen. Netherlands equalised with Kick Smit, who converted a free-kick by Puck van Heel. Kielholz restored the Swiss advantage before half-time with a long-range effort. After the interval, the lead was extended thanks to Abegglen's goal. Netherlands frequently threatened the Swiss goal, scoring one from a free-kick, but Switzerland held on for the victory. 1934 5 27 y 16:00 CET (UTC+01:00) SUI 1934 FIFA World Cup final tournament#Switzerland vs Netherlands 3–2 NED Kielholz 7 43 Abegglen 66 Smit 29 Vente 69 Stadio San Siro, Milan 33,000 Ivan Eklind (Sweden) https://www.fifa.com/en/match-centre/match/17/3/204/1133 Switzerland vs Netherlands Preliminary Round 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy FIFA 1 May 2026 http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=204/match=1133/index.html 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy – Matches – Switzerland v Netherlands FIFA 1 May 2026 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20170801224428/http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=204/match=1133/index.html 1 August 2017 _vneck transparent _band_red FF0000 FF0000 FF0000 FFFFFF 000000 Switzerland _collar _band_white 000080 000080 000080 000080 87CEFA Netherlands GK Frank SéchehayeRB Severino Minelli (c)LB Walter WeilerRH Albert GuinchardCH Fernand JaccardLH Ernst HufschmidOR Willy von KänelIR Raymond PasselloIL André AbegglenOL Joseph BossiCF Leopold KielholzManager:Heinrich Müller300pxGK Gejus van der MeulenRB Mauk WeberLB Sjef van RunRH Henk PellikaanCH Wim AnderiesenLH Puck van Heel (c)OR Frank WelsIR Leen VenteIL Kick SmitOL Joop van NellenCF Beb BakhuysManager:Bob Glendenning Assistant referees: Alois Beranek (Austria) Ferruccio Bonivento (Italy) Italy vs United States A superior Italian team had a comfortable victory against the United States, which had played against Mexico in the qualifying just three days earlier.

In fact, they presented a roster of newcomers as only Alfredo Devincenzi and Arcadio López were previously capped by the team. Argentina took the lead with a 25-yard free kick by Ernesto Belis. A more organised Sweden team soon equalized with Sven Jonasson. Argentina showed an excellent attacking prowess and went ahead again with an individual effort from Alberto Galateo. However, an efficient Sweden team took advantage of the defensive weakness of Argentina to score twice before the final whistle and hold on for the victory. 1934 5 27 y 16:00 CET (UTC+01:00) SWE 1906 1934 FIFA World Cup final tournament#Sweden vs Argentina 3–2 ARG 1861 Jonasson 9 67 Kroon 79 Belis 4 Galateo 48 Stadio Littoriale, Bologna 14,000 Eugen Braun (Austria) https://www.fifa.com/en/match-centre/match/17/3/204/1102 Sweden vs Argentina Preliminary Round 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy FIFA 1 May 2026 http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=204/match=1102/index.html 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy – Matches – Sweden v Argentina FIFA 1 May 2026 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20171211223520/http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=204/match=1102/index.html 11 December 2017 _swe34h _2_gold_stripes FFDD33 FFDD33 FFDD33 8383FF 000000 Sweden _white_stripes _3stripesonwhite _white_stripes _white_bands 99CCFF 99CCFF 99CCFF 999999 000000 Argentina GK Anders RydbergRB Nils AxelssonLB Sven AnderssonRH Rune CarlssonCH Nils Rosén (c)LH Ernst AnderssonOR Gösta DunkerIR Ragnar GustavssonIL Tore KellerOL Knut KroonCF Sven JonassonManager:József Nagy300pxGK Héctor FreschiRB Juan PedevillaLB Ernesto BelisRH José NehinCH Constantino Urbieta SosaLH Arcadio LópezOR Francisco RúaIR Federico WildeIL Alberto GalateoOL Roberto IrañetaCF Alfredo Devincenzi (c)Manager:Felipe Pascucci Assistant referees: Albino Carraro (Italy) Giuseppe Turbiani (Italy) Austria vs France France took the lead with a goal from Jean Nicolas, who had suffered a head injury in the early stages of the match.

Austria took an early lead with Johann Horvath, who finished a well-organised team move. Austria doubled their lead in the early stages of the second half. Shortly after, Hungary got one back thanks to a penalty caused by Karl Sesta. The match hung in the balance until Hungary lost two players: Imre Markos was red carded and István Avar got injured. After that, Austria comfortably cruised to the victory. 1934 5 31 y 16:30 CET (UTC+01:00) AUT 1934 FIFA World Cup final tournament#Austria vs Hungary 2–1 HUN 1920 Horvath 8 Zischek 51 Sárosi 60 pen.

Spain went ahead with Luis Regueiro, but their lead did not last long. Italy equalized when Giovanni Ferrari knocked in a rebound, while Zamora was blocked off by Schiavio.

The exhaustion and the injuries resulting from the first tie forced Italy and Spain to make four and seven changes respectively. Most notably, the experienced Zamora had to give way to the uncapped goalkeeper Juan José Nogués. Once again, the game was marred by controversial refereeing decisions. In the first five minutes, Crisant Bosch was hacked down by Eraldo Monzeglio in the penalty box. The penalty was not given, but the tackle resulted in the injury of Bosch. With no substitutes available, Spain had to play the remainder of the game with 10 men. Giuseppe Meazza scored soon after from a corner kick situation. In the second half, two Spanish goals were disallowed: one for offside and the other for a foul on a Spanish player. The referee, René Mercet, was suspended in the aftermath of the tournament. 1934 6 1 y 16:30 CET (UTC+01:00) ITA 1861 1934 FIFA World Cup final tournament#Replay: Italy vs Spain 1–0 ESP 1931 Meazza 11 Stadio Giovanni Berta, Florence 43,000 René Mercet (Switzerland) https://www.fifa.com/en/match-centre/match/17/3/418/1123 Italy vs Spain Quarter-final 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy FIFA 1 May 2026 http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=418/match=1123/index.html 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy – Matches – Italy v Spain FIFA 1 May 2026 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20171212122506/http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=418/match=1123/index.html 12 December 2017 _vneck _band_blue 79BBFE 79BBFE 79BBFE ffffff 000000 Italy _esp3138 _esp2124 ED1C24 ED1C24 ED1C24 003060 000000 Spain GK Gianpiero Combi (c)RB Eraldo MonzeglioLB Luigi AllemandiRH Attilio FerrarisCH Luis MontiLH Luigi BertoliniOR Enrique GuaitaIR Giuseppe MeazzaIL Attilio DemaríaOL Raimundo OrsiCF Felice BorelManager:Vittorio Pozzo300pxGK Juan José NoguésRB Ramón ZabaloLB Jacinto Quincoces (c)RH Leonardo CilaurrenCH José MuguerzaLH Simón LecueOR Martí VentolràIR Luis RegueiroIL ChachoOL Crisant BoschCF Campanal IManager:Amadeo García Assistant referees: Bohumil Ženišek (Czechoslovakia) Mihály Ivanicsics (Hungary) Semi-finals Italy vs Austria A torrential downpour hampered the Austrians' passing game while benefiting the more varied Italian game.

The ball then hit the post and was turned into goal by a perfectly positioned Enrique Guaita. In the second half, Austrian efforts to equalize were stopped by Gianpiero Combi, and Italy managed to hold on for the victory. 1934 6 3 y 16:30 CET (UTC+01:00) ITA 1861 1934 FIFA World Cup final tournament#Italy vs Austria 1–0 AUT Guaita 19 Stadio San Siro, Milan 35,000 Ivan Eklind (Sweden) https://www.fifa.com/en/match-centre/match/17/3/3492/1107 Italy vs Austria Semi-final 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy FIFA 1 May 2026 http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=3492/match=1107/index.html 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy – Matches – Italy v Austria FIFA 1 May 2026 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20171123183442/http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=3492/match=1107/index.html 23 November 2017 _vneck _band_blue 79BBFE 79BBFE 79BBFE ffffff 000000 Italy _vneck _band_white ffffff ffffff ffffff 000000 000000 Austria GK Gianpiero Combi (c)RB Eraldo MonzeglioLB Luigi AllemandiRH Attilio FerrarisCH Luis MontiLH Luigi BertoliniOR Enrique GuaitaIR Giuseppe MeazzaIL Giovanni FerrariOL Raimundo OrsiCF Angelo SchiavioManager:Vittorio Pozzo300pxGK Peter PlatzerRB Franz CisarLB Karl SestaRH Franz WagnerCH Josef Smistik (c)LH Johann UrbanekOR Karl ZischekIR Josef BicanIL Anton SchallOL Rudolf ViertlCF Matthias SindelarManager:Hugo Meisl Assistant referees: Louis Baert (Belgium) Bohumil Ženišek (Czechoslovakia) Czechoslovakia vs Germany The game proved to be a clash of styles, with a more technical Czechoslovakia facing a physical German side. Czechoslovakia took the lead in the first half, but Germany drew level in the second half when František Plánička could not keep out a tame shot by Rudolf Noack. The Germany goal stimulated the Czechoslovak side. Czechoslovakia took advantage of their finesse and attacking prowess to score twice with Oldřich Nejedlý, who completed a hat-trick. 1934 6 3 y 16:30 CET (UTC+01:00) TCH 1934 FIFA World Cup final tournament#Czechoslovakia vs Germany 3–1 GER 1933 Nejedlý 21 69 80 Noack 62 Stadio Nazionale PNF, Rome 15,000 Rinaldo Barlassina (Italy) https://www.fifa.com/en/match-centre/match/17/3/3492/1130 Czechoslovakia vs Germany Semi-final 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy FIFA 1 May 2026 http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=3492/match=1130/index.html 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy – Matches – Czechoslovakia v Germany FIFA 1 May 2026 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20171213003409/http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=3492/match=1130/index.html 13 December 2017 _vneck _whitetop A93226 A93226 A93226 ffffff 0000FF Czechoslovakia _blackborder _germany1934 _blackborder _germany1934 FFFFFF FFFFFF FFFFFF 000000 000000 Germany GK František Plánička (c)RB Jaroslav BurgrLB Josef ČtyřokýRH Josef KošťálekCH Štefan ČambalLH Rudolf KrčilOR František JunekIR František SvobodaIL Oldřich NejedlýOL Antonín PučCF Jiří SobotkaManager:Karel Petrů300pxGK Willibald KreßRB Willy BuschLB Sigmund HaringerRH Paul ZielinskiCH Fritz Szepan (c)LH Jakob BenderOR Ernst LehnerIR Otto SifflingIL Rudolf NoackOL Stanislaus KobierskiCF Edmund ConenManager:Otto Nerz Assistant referees: Alois Beranek (Austria) Pedro Escartín (Spain) Match for third place Both teams changed their usual line-ups, resting several players. Austrian players wore an unusual light blue jersey borrowed from Napoli because of the clash of colours between the two traditional jerseys. Germany took the lead inside 25 seconds with the fastest goal of the tournament, scored by Ernst Lehner. They doubled the lead with Edmund Conen, but Austria got one back immediately after with Johann Horvath. Germany's third goal came after Karl Sesta attempted to sit on the ball to ridicule a German player; the ball was stolen by Conen, who crossed to Lehner. Sesta then scored a goal, but Germany held on for the victory. 1934 6 7 y 18:00 CET (UTC+01:00) GER 1933 1934 FIFA World Cup final tournament#Match for third place 3–2 AUT Lehner 1 42 Conen 27 Horvath 28 Sesta 54 Stadio Giorgio Ascarelli, Naples 7,000 Albino Carraro (Italy) https://www.fifa.com/en/match-centre/match/17/3/3491/1105 Germany vs Austria Match for third place 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy FIFA 1 May 2026 http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=3491/match=1105/index.html 1934 FIFA World Cup Italy – Matches – Germany v Austria FIFA 1 May 2026 dead https://web.archive.org/web/20171212132847/http://www.fifa.com/worldcup/matches/round=3491/match=1105/index.html 12 December 2017 _blackborder _germany1934 _blackborder _germany1934 FFFFFF FFFFFF FFFFFF 000000 000000 Germany 99ccff 99ccff 99ccff 000000 000000 Austria GK Hans JakobRB Paul JanesLB Willy BuschRH Paul ZielinskiCH Reinhold MünzenbergLH Jakob BenderOR Ernst LehnerIR Otto SifflingIL Fritz Szepan (c)OL Matthias HeidemannCF Edmund ConenManager:Otto Nerz300pxGK Peter PlatzerRB Franz CisarLB Karl SestaRH Franz WagnerCH Josef Smistik (c)LH Johann UrbanekOR Karl ZischekIR Georg BraunIL Johann HorvathOL Rudolf ViertlCF Josef BicanManager:Hugo Meisl Assistant referees: Camillo Caironi (Italy) Pedro Escartín (Spain) Final 1934 FIFA World Cup final Final Lineups References Match reports Report External links 1934 FIFA World at FIFA.com 1934 FIFA World at RSSSF.com Final tournament 1934 tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament tournament 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 1934 Category:Football competitions in Rome Category:Football competitions in Florence Category:Football in Genoa Category:Sports competitions in Genoa Category:Football competitions in Milan Category:Football competitions in Turin Category:Sport in Bologna Category:Football in Naples Category:Sports competitions in Naples Category:Sport in Trieste Category:1930s in Rome Category:1930s in Milan Category:1930s in Turin Category:20th century in Genoa Category:20th century in Florence Category:20th century in Naples Category:20th century in Bologna Category:History of Trieste
