Swaraj Naik, 15, hogged the limelight, scoring two quick second-half goals after providing the assist for the first, as Utpal Shanghvi Global School (Juhu) recorded a facile 4-0 win against VCW Arya Vidya Mandir (Bandra) in the boys’ U-16 Div-III final of the MSSA inter-school football tournament at Cooperage on Wednesday.
The Juhu school lads combined well to launch a series of attacks into the rival territory. They took the lead in the fourth minute when Swaraj, with a measured pass, found Shounak Shah unmarked inside the opposition box. Shounak trapped the ball, swirled around and unleashed a stinging shot past goalkeeper Vedant Shah, into the roof of the net.
