CHOICE OF THE DARK BLUES

KMB FIND BIG GAME TIGERS BLOCKING THEIR CHAMPIONSHIP ROAD

By I. M.

MacTAVISH

The speed and enthusiasm of Sing Tao's youngsters are becoming infections. Old hands Chang Kam-hoi and Hau Yung-sang are being re- juvenated by the surge of youth that is carrying the Tigers back along the path to their former greatness.

In this lively game played at the Club Stadium yesterday these two players Inspired the Sing Tao side to another thrilling display that often had the Busmen reeling right back on their heels. Some of their combined play was way ahead of anything produced by the Champions and while a scoreless draw was, in the end, a fitting result, the honours of the game go to the Tigers.
