Reigning champions Don Bosco (Matunga) remained on course to defend their title in the boys under-16 first division of the MSSA inter-school football tournament as they made their way to the summit clash after scripting a hard-fought 4-3 victory over arch-rivals St Stanislaus (Bandra) via tie-breaker. The semi-final was played at St Francis D’Assisi ground, Borivli, on Thursday.
Unable to break the deadlock in the regulation period despite having the better of the exchanges in terms of enjoying majority of the possession, Don Bosco were made to work really hard by the Bandra school, who defended resolutely. Credit must go to their entire backline including the goalkeeper for ensuring things remained on even terms at full time.
