BI-ANNUAL ENCOUNTER AT KOWLOON CITY
The outstanding feature of the game was the brilliant dis- Gould, from the Navy second eleven, who completely baffled the Chinese defence- and were presented with openings galore, but their shots invariably hit everything else but the back of the net.
The Chinese attack was very good, but one could not but help notice the difference between it and the regular South China "A" forward line. There was a distinct comparison be- tween the two on Thursday the attack lacked finishing power, whereas South China "A" are well-known for their final touches.
