Cathedral and John Connon (Fort) clinched their maiden boys U-16 Division-I title in the 82nd Mumbai School Sports Association (MSSA) inter-school football tournament with a dominant 3-1 win over Smt RSB Arya Vidya Mandir (Juhu) at the Wings Sports Centre, Bandra, on Monday.

Anaai D’Souza of Cathedral struck first in the 16th minute, latching onto a defence-splitting pass and taking a deft first touch before unleashing a low, angled shot into the far-left corner. 

Zahan doubles the lead

Five minutes later, Cathedral doubled the lead through Zahan Mistry, who timed his run perfectly to meet an accurate pass just ahead of the AVM centre-backs and slotted the ball into an empty net.
