The Colaba Municipal School players displayed loads of energy and stamina as they braved the hot and humid conditions, skipped lunch and still managed to play two matches, winning one, within a span of three hours yesterday.
First, they played a District Sports Office (DSO) match against Fazlani School (Mazgaon) which they lost 0-1 at the Goan Sports Association ground, Cross Maidan at 12:30 pm. Then, they quickly rushed to play their first round match, scheduled for 1.30 pm, against JJ Academy (Mulund) in the Mumbai Schools Sports Association-organised boys' U-16 Ahmed Sailor knockout inter-school football tournament, at Azad Maidan.
