(Dy "Abo"

Had the Hongkong players shown a little batter understanding, especially in the forward line, the result of the Junior Interport soccer match against Macao, played on the Kowloon F.C. ground yesterday, would have been very open. But playing as eleven in- dividuals and not in the least bit as a team, they were defeated by the visitors by five goals to three.
