HAIPHONG-HANOI FOOTBALL TEAM PLAYS DRAWN GAME WITH EASTERN
Visitors Very Fast But Lack Combination: They Can Shoot Well
(By "Abe")
Fow teams can be at their best it called upon to play a soccer match a few hours after a rough two-day voyage, and on this account the combined Haiphong-Hanoi side which played a 4-4 draw against the Eastern A.A. on the Club ground yos- torday may be excused for their erratic display.
But even so, one cannot help but ?- remember, after the match, their poor
combination and their inediocre ball Home Cricket

In many respects, Eastern were the better side, and therefore it seems rather inexplicable that they did not finish up with a comfortable margin to spare. Bad luck, plus fondness
for inter-pussing even in front of goal, was responsible for this, and la

This is the combined Halphong-Hanol football team now in the Colony for a series of three matches against local teams. A few hours after their arrival in Hongkong, the visitors turned out against the Eastern A. A. on the Club ground yesterday, the match ending in a draw of 4-4. Fast and possessing great stamina, they were sadly lacking in combination, however. They will undoubtedly do better in their next iwo matches, which are to be played during the next week-end-Siaf Photographer.
