With a quick and energetic attack during the first fifteen minutes of the game, Eastern had St. Joseph's College completely outclassed, and it was during this period that they scored three quick goals in the space of ten minutes. It took St. Joseph's some time to get set- tled down, and once when they achieved that stage, the attacks of Eastern were somewhat subdued.

There is no denying the fact for the Saints kept up a continual that on the day's play Eastern attack.

were the superior team all round, but had the Saints' forwards accepted the chances that were presented to them in the course of the game, the result would have been different..

Right from, the start, the Eastern went into the attack, and from n' passing rally staged by Thao, Hyul tricked two defenders to put his team one up. Soon they went to their work again, and from a free kick taken by Hau King-sing, Hau Ching- Lau ran in to score.
