A PARAMOUNT PICTURE
Against U.S.T.
Before meeting YCO last night, the Islington Corinthians had played three matches during thels, visit to Manila, winning one and drawing two.
In their opening game on March they had a clear-cut victory over nine an All-Chinese XI, scoring times without reply. In the second game, against the University of Santo Tomas, the English soccer tourists were held to a goalless
draw, and against La Salle on March 13 they were again held to a goaliess draw.
According to Manila newspapers just to hand, the Corinthians won their first match easily and fulfilled expectations as they "out-passed, out- kicked and completely out-played the Chinese,"
When they met the U.S.T., how- ever, the Islington Corinthians found themselves up against a team which had a nine-men defence! They had never experienced anything like, it before in the course of their present tour. Describing the match, the Manila Bulletin said:
"The play for at least nine-tenths of the game was in U.S.T. territory
