Senior Shield Quarter-Finals THRILLS IN

Penalty Kick Decides Match In Eastern's Favour: Sing Tao Surprised By St Joseph's

(By "SCRAMBLER"}

SHOWING A VASTLY improved form from their last league en- counter, Kwong Wah very nearly surprised Eastern when they mot yester- day in the quarter finals of the Senior Shield, succumbing only to a better organised attack by the odd goal in three. The losers were somewhat de- moralised by the award of a "spot-kick” against them for accidental hands during the latter part of the first half from which Eastern obtained the load. If a similar decision had been awarded them on two later occasions against the winners, the result might have been different.

Kwong Wah had only themselves to blame for the result, for their forwards were at no time dangerous, and

never in the course of the whole game took an effective shot at goal. The insidemen were unable to co-operate with the wingers, and their passes and understanding often went astray. If they had been a little more con- crete in their work, Eastern would have been sorely put to ward off the attacks.
