KITCHEE SCRAPE TWO POINTS
Another Big Game

By 1. M.
MacTAVISH
A solitary goal, scored direct from a free-kick by Lau Chi-lam after only five minutes play, gave Kitchee a shaky victory over Kowloon Motor Bus at the Hongkong Stadium yester- day afternoon.
It was a lusty, gusty sort of a game which produced very little in the way of good constructive football, Kitchee certainly had the upper hand during the first half but they slipped badly for a long time after the interval and in the end they were just a shade fortunate to take both points.
KMB had their chances and they although they may feel
there can be had tle luck only want sympathy for them.
