The better team won, Kowloon were most unfortunate in losing Knight, but never attained the standard" of football that the Surreys set them. A one goal margin would have been a letter reflex of the run of the play, for there was very little to choose between the teams, the sarreys finishing better.

He play- ed a really fine game and was the chief factor in the Kowloon defence. Knight played well until injured and had he not been so unfortunate it is probable that the Kowloon defence would have held out. McElvie played a great game at centre half, but did not fast so well as Turner, who was chiefly responsible for the quietness of Macklesworth.
