Aarav Maru scored a vital goal to help DY Patil International School (Worli) win the Mumbai Schools Sports Association (MSSA)-organised boys under-14 Division II inter-school football title at Azad Maidan yesterday. The Worli side beat St Francis D'Assisi High School 'B' (Borivali) 1-0 to earn promotion to Division I in style. DY Patil put their best foot forward from the beginning, using aerial shots and headers to break the opposition's defence. The Worli outfit striker and skipper Daksh Sojitra led from the front and played an important role by creating opportunities and feeding passes to his teammates.
