Then. 88 minutes after the start of the game, T. Van was sent away by Lee in a surprise breakaway. Rozario cut across to meet the winger and bowled him over in the penalty area. Sixteen thousand throats sent up a cheer as Referee Cornell pointed to the 12 yard spot-kick and the same 16,000 throats shouted themselves hoarse when Suen converted the penalty to tie the score at 2-2 and save the Chinese from defeat in the vi nick of time.
But the Portuguese. surprisingly enough, id mot collapse as their opponents expected them to do and seven minutes after the start of the extra period scored another goal to lead by 3-2. It was the best goal of the match—g lovely, 25-yard drive by Costa from Barradas' corner that was in the back of the net before anyone knew what had happened.
Once again Portugal appeared to have victory safely in their grasp and once again they were disappointed at the last minute. A sudden move on the left just before the final whistle enabled Tai to redeem himself with a first-timer that beat Souza and kept China in the running for Internationa] Cup honours.
