The gunners visited the sailors' citadel only twice throughout this moiety, and, although they managed to break through the bincks on both occasions, they failed to put the finishing touch. sailors exhibited some tricky play at this juncture, and had the gunners' defence guessing on more ccasions than one, but still they were unable to score. It was not until the second half was some twenty minutes old that the sailors secured their first goal.
