ARMY TAKE SWEET REVENGE FOR LAST SEASON'S DEFEAT IN SENIOR SHIELD FINAL

By I. M. MacTAVISH

Down through the years these two teams-great social friends and healthy soccer rivals-have waged many battles on the Colony football fields, but it is difficult to imagine that they have ever engaged in a tussle, harder fought than the one played at the Hongkong Stadium yesterday. This 2nd Round Senior Shield lie was the sort of cup-tie that sent a cold tingling sensation down every spine. The sort of game that had the crowd for. gelling just which side they had come to cheer and had them instead cheering each thrilling incident irrespective of which team claimed the advantage.
