SOUTH CHINA'S LAPSE. Borderers Make Great Final

Rally.

Unexpectedly bad finishing cost South China two much-required points. In mid-field they were clearly superior, the speed of their movements, both in tackling and intercepting, and in opening up the game, keeping the Borderers on tonterhooks for long periods, In front of goal, however, they seem- ed to lose touch, Fung King-cheong being the worst offender..

}

On at least three occasions after South China had equalised their Arat half deficit, when the whole side was all out and performing splendidly, Fung King-cheong was presented with comparatively easy chances and shot weakly by.

The Borderers doserved to win.
