Coach: Barrie Truman. Referee: O Soetedjo (Indonesia). Notes: New Zealand was scheduled to play Indonesia. Instead they faced two leading club sides after a last minute switch.

Kevin Weymouth was sent-off in the first half (around the 30th minute, following an altercation with Hartono who was also sent-off).

However, according to reports, the two Indonesian sides were "virtually the national playing under club names" and that "at least one player turned out for both Indonesian teams". The suspision that at least one club was a cover for the full Indonesian national side was espcially strong in this match. This however cannot be confirmed and Persija squad may have simply contained a large number of players who faced New Zealand in 1973. Maurice Tillotson is also reported to have come on for Iain Ormond, and not Kevin Weymouth.

As a result, the home side was billed a New Zealand XI instead of a national side. However, no changes to the playing personnel were made as a result of this billing. Willie Gibson's goal also reported as having been scored in "the dying minutes of the game".
