Goalkeeper Shayaan Parekh, 10, hogged the limelight with another impressive performance to help Cathedral & John Connon (Fort) beat Bombay Scottish (Mahim) 1-0 in the MSSA Cup boys U-12 quarter-final match of the inter-school football tournament at Azad Maidan yesterday.

Shayaan's teammate Ramit Shorewala netted the winner in the 15th minute. Thereafter, Scottish made efforts to cancel out Cathedral's advantage, but found Shayaan a hard nut to crack. "I used to play as a forward for JBCN International (Parel). But, after I joined Cathedral & John Connon last year, I opted to play in goal as I believe the goalkeeper's role is most important," Shayaan told mid-day.
