St Anne's (Orlem) scraped past Colaba Municipal School by a 1-0 margin in the Mumbai Schools Sports Association-organised boys' U-16 Ahmed Sailor knockout inter-school football tournament at the St Xavier's Ground, Parel yesterday.

The Orlem schoolboys did the bulk of the attacking but found the Municipal School goalkeeper Rishikesh Yadav a hard nut to crack. Rishikesh was outstanding under the bar and restricted St Anne's to just one goal, which was scored by Nathan Braganza in the 12th minute. The Colaba attack hardly posed any threat to St Anne's citadel and ended up being beaten by a solitary goal.
