The match was featured by the return of A. V. Oosano, who has been absent from soccer for over a season, his brother, B. T. Gosano, and N. Beltrao. The latter two-have also not participated actively In local football for over a year.
The Gosano brothers, with A. V. leading the attack and B. T. at inside-right, combined well, and made the openings for the Portu- guese while Beltrao showed that he had lost none of his old form and was his usual cool self.
