China Overwhelm Kwong Wah TOURNAMENT

South

Championship

Honours Brought Nearer: One Point in Lead

(By "SCRAMBLER").

a sodden ground and a HIGH WIND were not conducive to good football, but South China and Kwong Wah made the most of it when they mot yesterday at Carolino Hill, the Hongkong team winning by five goals to one. South China are now one step nearer to the Champion- ship, with one more game to go, and one point ahead of their nearest rivals, Eastern.

South China were on the whole the better team, com- bining excellently in both defence and attack. They were superior in both departments, and it must be said that the losers played as well as was to be expected, but found that South China were just that shade, faster than them.

South China's forwards were] In attack. Kwong Wah's forwards seen to good advantage when on were far too loose, being unable to the move, adapting themselves get moving together, and much of the danger that went South China's! better to the conditions, playing way invariably came from the left
