GOAL BY SOUSA BEATS THE ATHLETIC
ANOTHER PLAYER SENT OFF
(BY SPOT KICK)
A goal by Sousa towards the end of the first half enabled the Recreio to record their first win in the premier soccer league when they beat the Chinese Athletic by a goal to nil on the K. F. C. ground yesterday.
The standard of football was poor, due to the feeling which crept into the game and which was only checked by the sending off of C. Figureido, the Recreio centre-half, ten minutes after the interval. Figureido has only recently returned to the Colony,
