Fully realising this early reverse, the Hongkong players made a great bid to equalise. They had chances enough but did not have a forward who could put the finishing touches to some splendid approach work. The Macno goal had nairow shave when Douglass crossed in hard drive within the circle and Lammert almost deflected the ball into his own goal.

It was a curious gome, full of changes of fortune. Choy won the first three-games, losing only three points. Malfroy realised that to at- tack was his only chance against an opponent who needs time to make his best winners,
The New Zealander got on terms, but the effort was just too late, and Choy recovered in time to take the set at 7-5.
When Choy renched 5-2 in the second set all seemed over, but Malfroy made such a gallant effort that, after being: 15-40 down in the 10th game he pulled off the set at 75 In the third set Choy lost his touch completely, and could only get one game.
