COMMENTARY

Kwong Wah Surprise South China 2-0 Rajputs "A" Second In

Dour Defence Defeats

Tricky Forward Tactics

Fast And Exciting Game

(By "SCRAMBLER”)

THANKS TO A stubborn and spirited defenco ably led by Lee Kwok-wai, ex-South China stár, Kwong Wah were able to cause the first major upset of the season when they beat South China, last season's senior league Champions, by two goals to nil at Caroline Hill yesterday.

But in fairness to the losers, it must be stated that.. at one period of the game when the winners were lead- ing by only one, Lee Tak-kee and Chau Man-chi had Kwong Wah completely beaten only to see the shots rebounding to play after striking the cross and upright

bars.

On the whole, the winners

thoroughly deserved their win if Cricket only for their spirited display, and when South China were at one time all over them, they re- fused to give in, and heroic efforts of Lee Kwok-wai, ably j

assisted by Fok Yiu-wah and Yeung Tse-cheung and the cx- cellent goul-keeping of Lee Kwok-kee frustrated all South China's efforts.

South Chinn were the more polished team on view, but tactics such as adopted by several of their players were somewhat detrimental to their game. On the whole, South China's defence played as well as was to be expected, and it was only the atrocious

that defeated luck them.
