H.K.F.A... East China

[ft. Giorno e Leonord, Knoz. Wride, Rowlandsl

Rowlands, the lanky

WH.K.F.A. goalkeeper trotted

100 yards up the field to place the ball on the penalty spot and then to fire in a perfect shot which bad his opposite number beaten all the way, yesterday's football match at Caroline Hill between the Hongkong F.A., and East China reached its peak as an entertainment..

It was a thoroughly disappointing game, and left most of the few hun- dred

spectators irritated with its one-sidedness. Bluntly speaking East China were nowhere in

the sume class as the Colony team, and were outplayed from the start. Four goals were piled on in the first half, and two added in the second.

East China badly missed Li Ning in defence, though I doubt whether even his presence would have made all that difference, for he could not be expected to shoulder the burdens of ten other players.

The Chinese were hard workers in defence they had

to be-but in attack were futile. Neither were the forwards assisted in the slightest by their half backs, who overklcked the ball everytime sending it straight to the loes of Plekering and Stevens.

This picture was taken just no Dave Leonard, IL.K.F.A. contre-forward scored his goal against East China yesterday afternoon, by heading past Chang, the goalkeeper. (Photo by staff photographer).

Gosano was in fine fettle on the right wing and scored two peachy goals. Leonard led the attack with vim, and Knox, deputising for Bick ford on the left wing, gave a much improved display in the second half. Talbot was typically constructive.
