Singapore's footballers will not easily forget their 1960 week- end in Hongkong. On Saturday they lost the replay for the Aw Hoe Cup by five clear goals and yesterday they were over- run and outclassed by

Hongkong retained the 'Aw Hoe Memorial Cup' when, after a delightful display of on-the-carpet football at the Hongkong Stadium

on Saturday night, they defeated Singapore by five goals to mil. The Colony side was too fast, versatile and too clever, too much too fit for the visitors and their victory made the earller draw against the same opposi tion more inexplicable then
