RECREIO v. HONG KONG CLUB
This match was played at King's Park before a huge crowd of spectators, who were provided with first class and very thrilling football. Extra time had to be played to force a result and the Recreio added, two goals to their score during this period,
There was hardly anything to choose between the two teams, but Recreio put every ounce of energy into their efforts during the extra time and deserved to win.

This match at Caroline Hill at- tracted a fine crowd, probably largely because the League match South China v. Police was down to follow on the same ground.
In a very exciting match, with. the first half pointless, the Navy secured the verdict in the last kick and Navy, somewhat lucki- ly emerged winners by 1 goal to nil.
