Ins general summing up it would be safe to say that the rotain match should prove the game of the year in Hongkong football, and given good weather, there is no doubt that the standard of play will be very much above that which is generally witnessed.
Several of the referee's decisions did not seem to meet with the approval of a section of the onlookers, but players and spectators should always bear in mind that the referee is generally. in a better position than anyone else to give s proper verdict.
