Kitchee’s first away game of the season ended in a 1-4 defeat against Lee Man at Tseung Kwan O Sports Ground on Saturday (September 16).
Paulo made a great save and denied an early penalty in the first-half, but it wasn’t good enough for him to save another attempt in the 27th minute that saw his team behind in the game.
New signing Jakob Jantscher, who made his debut for Kitchee, created a first-half chance for Junior to equalize the scoring before Lee Man made the score 2 minutes later.
Kitchee chances continued in the second-half but what had been an open and action-packed game was effectively put to bed by a penalty and a stoppage time goal from Lee Man to see Kitchee had an afternoon to forget.
