Third place play-off - Soviet Union goal awarding edit

Third place play-off goal by Soviet Union seems to be wrongly attributed by FIFA to Malofeyev.

From this video by the same FIFA TV (minute 0'48" on Youtube, minute 2'15" on FIFA), goalscorer is very probably Banishevskiy (number 18) and not Malofeyev (number 19), never touching the ball.

This advice is agreed by russian archives, see:
