Match Trivia
The return match of the Scottish party against Boldkubben from Copenhagen, which yesterday took place in front of a large audience on the Hohe Warte, disappointed somewhat. The Scots did not fare so well as in the previous games, a phenomenon that is due to the fact that their team is not in full strength. Above all, they missed the famous back Nick Smith, who they never did find an appropriate replacement. In the goal for the professionals stood the goalie of the First Vienna Pekarna who spoiled nothing. The three goals he had to pass would not be stopped by Watson, the Rangers original goalkeeper. The Danes, who instead of the announced strengthening of two players only got one, who filled his place well as back, showed yesterday a better game in the Hohe Warte than on the last Sunday. Their ball technique was splendid, their combination not much worse than that of the Scots. In the battle of Corpora’s, they always withdrew, and that decided the victory. The Scots have their own technique, which made it difficult for their opponents to rely too much on individual play. The Danes make the first goal as a surprise. It is believed that the Scots will soon make up for it, but the team does not quite get involved swing. Their attacks lack the usual strength and incisiveness, which is the fault of the lame game of the wingmen. After all, the professionals have the desired success. A lightning fast back and forth the ball on ‘kind’ and ‘friendly’ feet, and is already stuck in the nets. The game is balanced. The Danes are not intimidated and show some very nice tricks, which are more for the eye than for the success. After a long burst of about 40 meters, there is a small slaughter at the gate of the Danes, where unexpectedly the ball goes through the goal. The Scots have the lead. The fight is more heated, at the expense of clarity and elegance. A strike through against the Danes goes into the net, all the mores so as the goalkeeper, offended by the supposedly unjust punishment, leaves his place under the post. Half-time 3:1. The referee also changes placed. Frank Joli, who until then had severed as a referee, was a bit hot with the agitated opponents, and he resigned his post to the Secretary of the Rangers Wilton, in the second half. The fight is interesting brilliant rushes and brilliant defence. Both goalkeepers are working well, but it must be mentioned that the Danes had a different player under the post than in the first half. There are two goals left on each side, the result of quick progress. The attitude of the Danes and their playing power in the second half deserve all praise. A large audience attended the match including a visit of the Danish ambassador Count Ahlefeld
