Coanno, who is suffering from an injury to his foot, was sorely missed by the Club de Recreio and they met with their third reverse, South China scoring three gonlar to one. South China's ultimate success was never in doubt. They were the much more enterprising of the two teams, and the right wing was a constant danger in spite of the fine work of Xavier.

Occasionally the Recreio were dangerous, but their finishing was feeble, and Li Tin-sang and his partner usually nipped the- efforts in the bud before good position developed.
