A brace by Martin D’Souza featured in Our Lady of Remedy’s 4-0 win over Fr. Agnelo (Malad) in the boys under-16 pre-quarterfinals of the Poinsur Gymkhana Inter-school football tournament, which got off to a fine start at Poisur Gymkhana ground here today. Apart from Martin’s contribution, other goal-getters were Sagar Desai and Mark Thankappan.
In another tie in the same section, Swami Vivekanad (Kandivali) thrashed Seven Square Academy from Dahisar 6-0 with Yashraj Waghela and Kirten Suba scoring twice each while Nishit Desai and Miir Jain struck towards the end to complete the tally. In a tensely fought under-14 tie, Rustomjee International (Dahisar) prevailed over Swami Vivakanand (Kandivali) 4-3 via the tie-breaker. The Swami Vivekanad boys struck through Gurutva Swamy in the 12 minutes of the first half, only to see Smit Shah equalizing just two minutes later. However, tie-breaker saw Swami Vivekanand boys prevailing in the end.
