The first game was played at Milan's San Siro stadium where, surprisingly, the home side was held to a goalless draw.
The return game was played at the considerably more intimate setting of the Parc Astrid stadium in Brussels, where the Belgian's immediately exploited their home advantage in taking the lead in the twenty-third minute of the game through Van Moer.
An out of sorts Italian side attempted to muscle their way back into the game and on the half-time whistle they exacted a degree of revenge for the goal when the Italian Bertini broke the leg of the Belgian goalscorer with the most cynical of tackles.

France became the first hosts to win the tournament since Italy in 1968, but whereas the Italians certainly benefited from playing in their own back yard, it would be fair to say that France would have won anywhere.
