Campion School's change of tactics after being 0-1 down, paid off yesterday as the Cooperage side registered a come-from-behind 2-1 win over Jamnabai Narsee (Juhu) in a do-or-die encounter to enter the semi-finals of the Mumbai Schools Sports Association (MSSA) boys' U-16 Division I inter-school football tournament at Azad Maidan.

Jamnabai needed a win to make it to the semis, while Campion would have scraped through with even a draw. With that in mind, Campion played the first half with a defensive mindset and were stunned in the 11th minute when Jamnabai Narsee's Prajin Gandhi scored via a Krish Kevlani assist. In the second-half, the Cooperage outfit asked their lanky defensive midfielder Rayan Badheka to play up front as they chased a draw.
