SING TAO AVERT DEFEAT LAST MINUTE GOALS Eastern Forwards Thrill Record Crowd: Defence In

In Great Form

(By "SCRAMBLER")

IN A THRILLING encounter before a record crowd for a local league game at Caroline Hill yesterday, Eastern and Sing Tao played a drawn game It was a match of two goals all, each scoring in each half of the game.. where the defences were most to the fore, and Eastorn had a lot to be thankful for, for if their rearguard had not come up to expectation towards the end of the game, Sing Tao would have snatched a last minute victory.

The game was fast and furious right from the start. Eastern got off to an carly goal, for right after Cheung Wing-choi made two spectacular saves in quick succes- sion, one from a free kick taken by Hsu King-seng and the other from Hau Ching-tau from close quarter, Lee Tin-sang miskicked to allow V. K. Hyui to follow up to net from close in. Less than three minutes later Eastern increased their lead for from a foul against Lee Tin- sang, Hsu King-seng took the kick just outside the area for Hau Ching-tau to push the ball into the net from close

range.
