Substitution: Platini for Papi (46 mn) and Six for Rocheteau (75 mn)
Incident: The game was delayed 45 mn over the official kick-off time because both teams had changed their home kits (blue shirt for France, red shirt for Hungary) for their away white uniforms due to miscommunication. The French eventually wore the kit of a local team, Club Atlético Kimberley: Shirt with white and green stripes, blue shorts and red socks (See kits below)
However, the numbers of some players were right on the shorts but mistaken on the shirts: Papi N°10 instead of N°12, Rocheteau N°7 instead of N°18, Rouyer N°11 instead of N°20 and the substitute Six N°16 instead of N°19
