OUTSTANDING DISPLAY BY KITCHEE GOALKEEPER SPLIT TWO POINTS

By 1. M.

MacTAVISH

What is the secret combination of Army forwards and floodlights that inspires Kitchee goalkeepers to turn in brilliant displays between the posts.

At the beginning of March young Jimmy Cheung thrilled friend and foe alike with a series of spell binding saves... and on Satur- day night, in the Colony's first-ever floodlight League match, Cheung Koon-hing delled the Army's eager forwards time and again with neck or nothing clearances.

That the game finished in a goalless draw was dae to an outstanding display by the Kitchee goalkeeper. During a spell of Army pressure in the first half he threw himself across the goal to push away a flushing drive that appeared to have him well beaten.
