Portugal Beat
Ireland.
SPLENDID DEFENCE
Poringal beat. Ireland, two goals to one, in the semi-final round of the International Hockey Tournament at King's Park yesterday, the Irish put- ting up a spirited resistance but proving no match to the Portagucas.
Portugal had been conceded a walk-over by the Continent and Ireland by Wales, and the two teams met in the semi-final round.
After a scoreless Arst half, N. A
Beltrao und J. A. Pinto netted in succession for the Portuguese in the early stages of play after the interval The goal for Ireland was scored by Dawson in the last minute of the game.
For the Portuguese, E. V. Alves, in goal, played a good game that served to take the edge off the Irish attack, the Irish forward line combining well and bringing the ball well up only to be robbed of full success by the strong Por- tuguese defence.
