Lightning Goal; - ̈
The Chinese tried hard to get going, but the gunners' defence played a sound game.
However, the Chinese broke away in a sporadic rush before the interval, and Suen reduced the deficit by a fine goal after draw ing the custodian out:
After the breather, Harris came within an ace of scoring.
The nippy Chinese forwards were not. alow to reply. With remarkable Ingenuity Suen snatched another goal, his lightning first-timer be- wildering Sneath. This made the scoré 2-all.
The soldiers were getting mest of the play, but Ng Kam-chuen, with fine tackling and sure kick ing, nullified their efforts time and again.
Penalty Missed,
The gunners vanguard could not finish their cleverly begun movements. They were awarded
a penalty, but Leach failed to
score:
Just. before the final whistle. the China team went away on one
of their dangerous rushes and al- mest snatched victory.
