Review
Played at Sociedad Sportive Argentina. For the second time on the tour, the opposition was a combined team of two Rosario clubs, Rosario AC and Rosario Central.
Ken Smales lists Fred Lessons as scoring three goals, and Holmes, Shearman and Niblo getting one apiece. The RSSSF website lists Lessons as only scoring 2, Shearman also scoring two, Tom Niblo getting one but lists Tom Davies as getting one instead of Albert Holmes. I'm sticking with Ken Smales.
