Don Bosco (Matunga) underlined their dominance in Mumbai schools football by completing the double as they defeated Cambridge School (Kandivli) 2-0 to win the Ahmed Sailor boys’ U-16 title in the MSSA inter-school football tournament at Cooperage on Friday. Earlier this month, the Matunga boys had beaten St Stanislaus (Bandra) 2-0 to win the U-16 Div-I final.

Huge achievement

“This win, to complete a double, is a big thing for us, our coach Leslie [Machado] sir and our parents, who have been supportive right from the time we started playing for the school in the U-8 team since 2008. Never before has this team won either the MSSA league or this knockout tournament. So, it’s a first for this bunch. We did finish runners-up and even won third place, but winning both, the league and Ahmed Sailor, is a very big victory,” Don Bosco’s dependable striker Yohaan Panjuani, who has scored 14 goals in MSSA competitions this season, told mid-day.
