DISALLOWED GOAL TAKES SPIRIT OUT OF POLICE
S. CHINA "A" WINS AS
RESULT OF A
BETTER FORWARD LINE
BONE AND PILE GIVEN
A GRUELLING TIME
(By "Abe")
For approximately 25 minutes-15 at the beginning of the first half and 10 at the end of the second-the Police played fine football against South China "A" in the First Division of the Hongkong Football League yesterday afternoon; but for the rest of the match they were fairly outplayed and were defeated by four goals to two
What led to their downfall was a disallowed goal in the first 15 min- utes when they were pressing con- Unuously. Howleit took the ball midfield, dribbled past two defenders and crashed the ball into the net just us he was tackled. While the Police supporters were cheering wildly, the referee pointed an inexor- able finger to a spot in front of goal instead of to the middle of the field.
From where was sitting, it was dimeult to understand why the goal was disallowed. Howlell had pos- ression of the ball all the time until he scored; therefore, there was no him being off-side. question of Apparently somebody else was.
All the snap which the Police and shown during this period disappeared entirely after this, and from the time the goal was disallowed until the Police rally in the closing stages of the game, there was only one team in it South China "A".
CHINESE RELAX
Leading by four goals to n only ten minules from the final whistle, the Chinese seemed to relax a bit; and the Police, seizing their opper- tunities, scored twice. The first was a beauty by Willerton who, from 25 yards out, shot over the heads of a bunch of players near the Chinese stant-mouth. The second was by Green, who finished good Police movement, with a well-placed hick.
The difference between the twn teams, except during the periods which I have niready specifled, was that whereas South Ching "A" play cá together as a unit, the Pallee were just cleven individualists, each in his own way trying to make use of the opportunities presented

KOWLOON RETAINS LEAD. IN
THE FIRST DIVISION
(By "Abe")
Kowloon and Middlessex, the two leaders of the First Division in the Football League, played a goalless draw on Satur- day, and as a result there is no change in the positions of the two teams. Kowloon, by virtue of a better goal average, still leads Middlesex in the League Table. Both the South China teams won their engagements over the week-end, the "8" re- taining its 100 per cent. record by beating St. Joseph's and the "A" having the better of the Police yesterday.
