A Dash Of Drama And Touch Of Tragedy Aid Grasshopper's Win
By I. M.
MacTAVISH
With but a few vital minutes of this game still to go, a speculative lob by Ballaman, and a mistake-in-a-million by Wai fut-kim, contrived to bring a dash of dramn....even of tragedy....to what had otherwise been a very ordinary match,
When his playing days are long finished, and when the cheers of the crowds are nothing more than pleasant memories, Wai Fat-kim- previously so magnificent, so confident, so cool will experience many a shiver in the spine as he despon- dently recalls this Grasshopper goal.
