Vignesh Mudliar, 11, captain of St Joseph’s (Malad) made two crucial saves in the tie-breaker to help his school overcome Bombay Scottish (Powai) 3-1 in the boys’ U-12 Division-II semi-final of the MSSA inter-school football tournament at Azad Maidan on Thursday.

After the match ended goalless in regulation time, Vignesh donned the goalkeeper’s gloves in the tie-breaker, as did Scottish skipper Shashawat Phuleria. Shashawat scored off the first kick and then blocked Shourya Shirali’s shot to give Scottish the advantage.
