Question 4

After FIFA began its "World Cup" in 1930, football took an Olympiad off before returning in 1936. In the quarterfinals, Peru took this nation to overtime, and managed to score 5 goals (three of which were overturned by referees). However after a 4-2 loss, this nation's Olympic Committee complained about poor field conditions, an angry crowd rushing the field after the game, and other things. Olympic officials decided to allow for a rematch, which not only caused the Peruvians to leave Berlin, but saw the German embassy in Lima attacked while dockworkers in Peru refused to load German ships. Identify this nation which borders Germany, which would become much, much closer on 12 March 1938.
