The [[association football]] tournament at the [[1956 Summer Olympics]] was won by the [[Soviet Union national football team|Soviet Union]].<ref name="SR">{{cite web|url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/summer/1956/FTB/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200417054613/https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/summer/1956/FTB/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=17 April 2020 |title=Football at the 1956 Melbourne Summer Games |work=Sports Reference |access-date=13 October 2018}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.rsssf.org/tableso/ol1956f.html|title=Games of the XVI.

==Background==
Following five withdrawals, the tournament featured three [[Eastern bloc]] teams and four from [[Asia]]. The other sides included in the draw were the [[United States men's national soccer team|United States]], the [[Germany Olympic football team|United Team of Germany]] (which was ''de facto'' West Germany), [[Great Britain men's Olympic football team|Great Britain]] and the hosts [[Australia men's national soccer team|Australia]], competing in their first Olympic football tournament.

The tendency of Eastern bloc countries to provide state-funding for their athletes put Western amateurs at a significant disadvantage. As a result, all Olympic football tournaments 1952 onwards were dominated by the Soviet Union and its satellites.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ozfootball.net/museum/ronlord.html |title=Australian Online Soccer Museum |access-date=3 November 2006 |url-status = dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20051103005233/http://www.ozfootball.net/museum/ronlord.html |archive-date=3 November 2005 }}</ref>

==Final tournament==

===First round===
[[File:Rudi Hoffmann und Max Schwall.jpg|160px|right|thumb|German players [[Rudi Hoffmann]] (left) and [[Max Schwall]] (right)]]

Five of the sixteen qualified teams withdrew before the final draw: {{fb|China}} (who boycotted the Games to protest the reception of [[Republic of China at the 1956 Summer Olympics|Taiwan]]), {{fb|Egypt|1922}} (who boycotted the Games to protest the [[Suez Crisis|Israeli, British and French invasion]]), {{fb|Turkey}}, {{fb|South Vietnam}}, and the [[1954 FIFA World Cup|recent World Cup runners-up]] {{fb|HUN|1949}}, a nation that was cheered in other Olympic contests due to their ongoing suppression by Soviet troops.

Therefore, only three games were played in the first round: as China and Turkey had been drawn against each other, their match was scratched.

The Soviet Union defeated the United Team of Germany 2–1, Great Britain defeated Thailand 9–0, and Australia defeated Japan 2–0.

===Quarter-finals===
Yugoslavia defeated the [[United States]] 9–1.

Great Britain lost 6–1 to Bulgaria, and at half-time, ratings from [[HMS Newcastle (C76)|HMS ''Newcastle'']] vaulted the fence and exhorted the team to show more grit, after which they were peacefully escorted off the field.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ozfootball.net/museum/1956olympics.html |title=News .....taken from "The Socceroos and their Opponents" by Laurie Schwab |work=Australian Online Soccer Museum |publisher=Australian Soccer Preservation Society |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060827201255/http://www.ozfootball.net/museum/1956olympics.html |archive-date=27 August 2006}}</ref>

The Soviets drew their game against [[Indonesia]] 0–0 and won 4–0 in the replay.

The Indians defeated Australia 4–2 with a hat trick by centre forward [[Neville D'Souza]], the first by an Asian in the Olympics. Prior to the game there had been debate, once again, as to whether the Indians should be shod. [[Sir Stanley Rous]] respected their decision either way, although in the end, the Indians decided to wear boots. The Indonesian referee disallowed two first half goals. [[Bob Bignall]] the Australian captain was unable to get an intelligible reply out of him during the break.
