England versus Australia in Melbourne crowd pleases few
A Saturday match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground drew about 11 000 spectators as England and Australia played a tight soccer test. The English forwards Parr Eastham and Wilkinson clashed with Australia’s captain Sheppard and defenders Mackie Coolahan as Smith and Anderson struck for goals. Australia equalized before halftime, then led by six minutes into the second half before England again equalized and edged ahead with a late Eastham strike. The author notes Australia’s cohesive teamwork and predicts a Dockerty Cup semifinal on August 7 with IC1 to face Prahran at Olympic Park.
