Pic/Shadab Khan The Bandra outfit registered a 2-0 win. u00a0Isaac played a crucial role in his team&rsquo;s victory. He had a bruised left leg, but played on with blood oozing. &ldquo;If you play football, you shouldn&rsquo;t bother much about injuries. They are part and parcel of the game. Today, I just had a bruised left knee, but on Tuesday, I had a cut on my right knee. I love the game, so I love injuries too,&rdquo; said the 14-year-old. Modest Isaac attributed the win to Sam Fernandes (14) who opened the scoring in the 32nd minute. &ldquo;We just wanted to win this game. Being the skipper, I didn&rsquo;t want to sit out and see others play and struggle. I am glad I scored, but credit for the win should go to Sam, who played an important role,&rdquo; Isaac told Sunday MiD DAY. <img alt="Sam Fernandes" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jul/Sam-Fernandes.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 641px;" /> Sam Fernandes Meanwhile, Sam said: &ldquo;Isaac is an important part of the team. He could have sat out, but he is mad over football and nothing can stop him from playing.
