Notes: The match is unofficial for both associations. The teams were both full
national teams, but played in disguise under the labels of "Sofiya" and
"Warszawa". However, these labels were false, as only one of the Polish
players (Gmoch) played for a Warszawa club, while two Bulgarian players
(Popov and Jekov) played for clubs based outside of Sofiya. In addition,
the majority of Polish players were born outside of Warszawa. Ten of the
Polish players played in the full international vs England on 05/01/1966,
and eleven of the Bulgarian players played in the World Cup qualifying
match vs Belgium on 29/12/1965. The other players also played in full
internationals before or after this match.
