Marine Engineers F. C. v. Shanghai Football Club The selection committee of the Shanghai Football Club made some very drastic changes in the formation of their team for this annual event; in fact, except for Goldman and Seredkin, the team consisted entirely of the 'B" eleven for the Skottowe Cup competition. Their decision was subject to much criticism, but their faith in the younger members of the Club was well rewarded, as the team, playing on a very difficult ground, put up a near enough to put the ball through, they were quite unable to penetrate the Club's defence. About 20 minutes before the call of time, Crawford handled the ball just outside his own penalty area. Goldman took the free kick, which was saved, but the ball rebounded to him and he shot again, from a dificult position, and scored a beautiful goal which gave McLean no chance whatever. With the scores level, the Club again attacked very strongly, and shortly afterwards Koning passed to Goldman and the latter, from a very pretty piece of individual play, beat the Engineers' defence and scored the winning goal with a shot that McLean could not possibly have reached. A few minutes later the whistle was sounded for time, a really good game terminating with the score at three goals to two in the Club's favour.
