Defending champions Don Bosco (Matunga) and challengers St Stanislaus (Bandra) took different routes to the boys’ U-16 Division-I final of the MSSA inter-school football tournament. 

On Thursday, in the first semi-final, the Matunga boys inflicted a 5-0 defeat on an uncharacteristic St Mary’s ICSE (Mazgaon), while the Bandra boys struggled to get past Christ Church (Byculla) 4-1 via the tie-breaker at the Cooperage, Churchgate.
