two minutes into the second half, the professionals were awarded a penalty for handball. seymour took the kick, but shot straight at howard baker, after which the "times" reporter felt the professionals lost heart. shortly afterwards, ashton received a pass from billy bryant, dummied cecil poynton and hit a low drive past hardy for his and the amateurs' third goal. macey chipped the ball over hardy for the fourth, and after a passing move involving several players, macey pulled the ball back to give ashton a tap-in. edgar kail found macey unmarked, and he "got the last goal with both spencer and charlton trying to worry him off the ball [which] was typical of his work throughout." with five minutes left, a move down the right wing between walsh and charlie hannaford led to the latter's consolation goal for the professionals.
