| Notes: |
| A 10-a-side team match played by telegraph. The match was declared drawn as a whole before most of the games were finished, and before they were advanced enough to be adjudicated. The only games to be agreed drawn by the players before the match was terminated were the two given here. Di Felice gives the results of all 10 games as draws. |
