CNAAF FORCE GOVERNOR'S Final Lap For The Torch P.I. TENNIS

CUP SOCCER SERIES TO THIRD MATCH

By "SPIV"

Gov

The Chinese National Amateur Athletic Federation forced the ernor's Cup series to a third match, when they defeated the Hongkong Foot- ball Association Xl yesterday in the return encounter by three goals to two.

Ho Ying-fun's winning goal for the CNAAF yesterday, barely 10 minutes from the end, was worth roughly $22,000, to the HKFA and the CNAAF who will share the takings of the third match.

Athough they had more than three-quarters of the play, the CNAAF only just managed to win. Their approach work to the HKFA goalmouth and combing- tion left little to he desired, but inability to give their pretty movements the finish. ing touch reduced the 20 or so scoring chances that came their way to only three goals.

But India's joy at this victory was tempered with regret. For Mankad was playing probably his last Test match for his country against England. He is professional in the Lancashire League, and this summer when India tour England he will play for Haslingden. The club is unlikely to release him for Test matches.
