A GOAL FOR THE DJURGARDENS

The Djurgardens are still unbeaten after having played two of their three scheduled matches in Hongkong. On Saturday

they beat the all-Hongkong XI by 2-0 and yesterday they edged out the Hongkong Selection by one goal to nil.

The above photo shows the Djurgarden left winger Ulf Schramm scoring the first goal for his side in their match against all-Hongkong on Saturday.
