Rocha scored for the Civilians after they had been repulsed des. parately, and despite fine defen- siye work by Mott, who was in good form, Suen, with a quick shot, added for the Civilians close in.
Goldman gave Moth no chance with a penalty kick for handling by the back, and the Civilians led easily to the interval by three goals to níl.
Reshuffled
In the second half the Army reorganised their forward line, Jobe going outside, and Cross coming to centre forward, but the Civilians held the upper hand. McKelvie put a penalty kick outside.
The Civilians' passing was at times good, as also was the Army's right wing, but there were many poor patches.
