With that spelling perhaps Arthur Holland is the elusive "H"

I do not have any idea about the gentleman on the left, but the tall man on the right looks like Konstantin Zekovic of Yugoslavia, though my spelling may not be 100% accurate!

   

Thank you JCFC. That's definately Konstantin Zecevic.

I'm wondering who the two linesmen were for the Argentina v W Germany match (posted by spk on p1). The tall chap on the right has a rather British look about him, with long white turnovers to his socks. Looks a little bit like the late Prince Philip! Is it Hugh Philips of Scotland by any chance or my other (non-British) guess - Bertil Loow of Sweden? The little linesman tucked behind Argentina captain Rattin has no white turnovers, hence probably not one of the British contingent. Campos of Portugal or Marques of Brazil by any chance? Thoughts welcome. With Rattin present, no wonder Zecevic needed a police escort at the end!   

West Germany   v   Argentina   0   0   Konstantin Zecevic (YUG)   Joaquim Campos (POR)   Bertil Loow (SWE)

Zecevic was on the line for ARG v ESP & ENG v POR (SF)

Campos was ref for ARG v SUI and on the line for FRA v MEX & URS v HUN (QF)

Loow was ref for URU v MEX and on the line for FRG v SUI

Mr Holland's linesmen were Konstantin Žečević and Arthur (or Antoine) Blavier of Belgium.

Thank you.
