St Mary's ICSE (Mazgaon) rode on the brilliant twin strikes from Yashoman Kumar to prevail over Lakshdham School (Goregaon) 4-1 in a boys U-12 Division-II match of the MSSA inter-school football tournament at Azad Maidan on Monday.

Immediately on resumption, Yashoman scored his first goal in the 21st minute to double St Mary's advantage. Lakshadham showed signs of fighting back when Kavish Badsiwal hit the target in the 36th minute to cut the deficit. But St Mary's scored two quick goals to seal the win.


Jonathan D'Souza struck the third goal in the 37th minute and two minutes later Yashoman hammered in the fourth goal to round-off the winning margin.
