Don Bosco boys triumph; Cathedral girls in final


Don Bosco (Matunga) after their  impressive show in the DSO’s Subrato Mukherjee under-14 tournament, came into their own to down Cathedral & John Connon by a solitary goal to bag the under-14 title in the a DSO’s  (Divisional Sports Office) Mumbai city inter-school football tournament, played at Worli Sports Club today. The all-important goal came through fine effort by Shyam Redekar. It was thus a sweet revenge for  the Matunga outfit, who were beaten by the same opponent on tie-breaker at Borivali last month.
