      83' "The game was proceeding to a draw when Cherry made a mild challenge from behind on Bertoni, spread his palms wide as the Argentinian turned and received a blow in the mouth for his trouble. The referee's back was turned but a linesman had spotted the incident although his version must have been a little awry because after Bertoni had been sent off an amazed Cherry, mouth starting to bleed, followed him. Afterwards it was learned that Cherry had lost two front teeth."
