Arsenal v Dynamo Moscow (Friendly).

Score –  Arsenal 3   Dynamo Moscow  3.

Attendance : – 54,620.

The match was played in thick fog, with several dubious decisions in the match from the referee Dynamo brought with them from Russia helping them to a narrow win.  The home-based linesmen stayed on the same side of the pitch (not that they could see much) and apparently, at one stage Dynamo had 12 players on the pitch, while Arsenal’s George Drury had been sent off, but snuck back on unnoticed under the cloak of fog.  Centre forward Rooke suffered a cut forehead, while Dynamo captain sustained a black eye as a lot went on out of sight of the officials.  Rooke was a guest player from Fulham and another – Stanley Matthews – almost brought about a diplomatic incident, as the visiting club were under the understanding that they were not playing a “select” XI.
At 3-3 Arsenal were apparently denied a perfectly good goal, while one of the Dynamo goals was reported to be patently offside.
