Playing their last friendy "football game at Kiaochow Park yesterday before leaving Shanghai for the North next Monday, H.M.S. Suffolk bowed in defeat to Lido by three clear goals. The Chinese netted all the points in the first half and were content to keep the margin after the interval.
Lido pressed from the very beginning and tallied in less than three minutes. M. S. Chang, outside right, was fast and combined with Y. N. Shah to send over a lovely shot for Lee to beat the Naval goalkeeper. Z Kiang, inside-left, successfully blocked Muir, right fullback, out of play to put Lee. in a safe position to drive home a great shot.
The sailors played well in thei middle of the field. The halves worked like Trojans but the forwards lacked punch. Kiang missed a fine chance to increase the lead when he baleened the ball in the pack area with only the keeper to beat. Later, Lee threw away a golden opportunity as He mis kicked in front of the goal. Chang threatened on the right flank but it was a looping pass from Y. S.i Tsoong, outside-left, that resulted in the Chinese netting a second goal through Kiang in the 25th minute.
