Had the Liverpool inside forwards steadied themselves in the scrimmages in front of the Arsenal goal honours might have been shared.
It was a fine, fast game, full of thrills. Arsenal's first two goals, while well worked for, were rather lucky, and should have been pre- vented.

A quarter of an hour later, at the twenty-fifth minute, Blenkinsop miskicked and Riley, dashing out desperately, was un- able to get to the ball before Hulme, who walked it into the net.
Liverpool never gave up, and when, eight minutes after the re- start, Wright headed a splendid goal from Nieuwenhuys's centre. i
