The national team of the UNION OF SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLICS stands at attention just prior to the international friendly match with visiting Denmark at the Grand Arena of the Central Lenin Stadium in Moscow on July 12, 1980, a little over a week before the start of the football tournament at the Summer Olympic Games hosted by the Soviet Union.

U.S.S.R. striker OLEG BLOKHIN of Dynamo Kiev shoots past East Germany goalkeeper JUERGEN CROY (1) of FC Sachsenring Zwickau to give the Soviet Union a quick 2-0 lead in the 30th minute of the 1972 Summer Olympic Games Bronze Medal Match at the Olympiastadion in Munich, West Germany.
East Germany netminder JUERGEN CROY of FC Sachsenring Zwickau conceded only one goal — that being from the penalty spot — through the Deutsche Demokratische Republik’s first four Olympic matches at the football tournament of the 1976 Summer Games in Canada.
