SOUTH CHINA "A" RETAIN LEAGUE
CHAMPIONSHIP
(By "Rex")
Kwong Wah fought South China "A" to a goal·less draw at Boundary Road yesterday, in a rather fast and exciting encounter. South China "A" have thus won the League championship for yet another season.
Tam Kwan-kon and Wong Wah-gay, custodians of South China and Kwong Wah respectively, gave brilliant performances, Wong was the better and the more tested. On one occasion, after going full length to Tang Kwong- sum's shot, he sprang up almost immediately to punch over Lau Tau-man's lob of a few yards away. Another highlight of the match was the splendid goal scored by Lee Wai-tong. Chin Chi-fai, however, was flagged off- side, and the goal disallowed.
