Match Report |
England at Cardiff yesterday
followed up their victory over Ireland at Belfast by beating Wales. The
margin in favour of the winners was limited to a single goal, which was
scored within five minutes of the finish ; and as the Welshmen lost the
services of A. T. Jones, one of their backs, 20 minutes from the start,
the success of the Englishmen was not of a description calculated to
arouse much enthusiasm. Wales, indeed, deserved to draw, but the luck
went against them. Apart from a rather fresh breeze the weather
yesterday was extremely pleasant, and the ground was in excellent
condition...
A draw seemed assured, when
Houlker got the ball away from Green, dribbled some yards, and passed up
to Common, who sent the ball over to Day. The last-named player was in
his stride in a moment, and, eluding Blew, he shot at close range into
the net well clear of Roose.
