CAPTAIN'S FATAL DECISION

HERE is a certain element of luck in every game and the chinese Federation were de-ftedly unlucky on Sunday," said Lee Wai-tong, China's foremost football star, when exclusively Interviewed yesterday.

"There were several vital factors concerned in their defcal," the most important being the penalty which was missed.

"I cannot understand how it was that, Wong Wing nomin- ated Tam Kong-pak to take the kick, as the latter had just re- turned to the field after being out of play for about 10 minutes. He was certainly in no condition to take the shot which undoub-

visitors would have won by a comfortable margin, but, as it was, they had to fight very hard to get anywhere near the Civilian circle.

Individually, Rodrigues, the Civilian left-back, Gonsalves the right-half, and Oliveira, at centre-half, were outstanding, and it was mainly due to these three that the Germans failed in their attempts to score. Parker did not come into the limelight until well into the second half, while Selk, the right-back, made a very poor start, but improved wonderfully as the game went on.
