Macaensis A' A Hockey title

nearer to Senior

KCC 'A' DISPLACE NAV BHARAT FROM 2nd PLACE Macaensis 'A' took a step nearer the Hockey League First

Division' championship by defeating Recreio 'A' 3-1 yestor day.

Nov Bharat 'A' lost their second place in the League tablo, losing 1-3 to Army 'A' and KCC 'A' took over second place by virtue of their 4-1 win over IRC ‘A.' The top four places are now occupied by Macaensis 'A' with 17 points from 10 games, KCC 'A' with 15 points from 1] gomes played, Nav Bharat 'A' with one point less from the same number of matches and Army 'A' with 13 points from nine gomes.

of the table At the bottom Macoensis 'B' enflected their Arst point of the season with a 4-2 win over Recrelo 13.

Macaensis 'A' vs Recreio 'A'

In this very fast game at King's Park Macaensis 'A' emerged comfortable winners by 3-1, two of their goals being scored by

from A. Capitale penalty corners. Recrelo had the majority of the play but could not make much impression on the Macnensis defence in which A. Capitule and Valoma were aui- standing.

Recreios centre-half R. A. Silvn was guilty

much of tou fiddling in the centre instead of getting his wings moving and this gave Maenensis plenty time to cover up,

Lacked cohesion Castro was always trying 101 get his other forwards moving but they lacked cohesion.

The game opened with creio first into the attack when after A. Guterres and I. Guter- res had combined to take the ball upfield, Castro's shot was Baved by Zor Sequeira.

Macaensis then came into the picture, J. Capilule took the ball up the right wing and centred and Nelasco con- ceded short-corner. This

was taken by J, Capilule who passed for A. Capitulo to shoot hard and open the scoring.

In the ninth minute they in- creased their lead. Cunha obtain- and ed possession in midfele passed to bus who passed on for Sequeira to run through and Bick prist Lureina.

Three minutes later they were awarded another short-corner when Cunho was obstriteted in the circle. J. Capitule agaln took this but Cuntia ran in and Jumped over the hall in an al- tempt to upset the Recreks de- fence and was rightly penalised by umpire Xavier.
