Don Bosco International (Matunga) had little problems in keeping up their winning run as they eased past JB Petit (Fort) by a comfortable 3-0 margin in a girls U-16 second division clash of the MSSA inter-school football tournament at St Francis D’Assisi football ground, Borivli, on Friday.

In complete control of the proceedings right from the outset, Don Bosco were hardly tested while they accumulated three points from the afternoon fixture. Nakeesha Walia netted a brace, while Aditi Sakaria scored one goal to complete the tally.
The Don Bosco girls quickly settled into their stride and enjoyed a clear upper hand, not only in terms of territorial advantage, but also by constantly probing the JB Petit defence that seemed to be living dangerously.

The spell of pressure paid off when Nakeesha received a square pass from the left and broke the deadlock with a neat finish in the 12th minute.
The Fort outfit never managed to get things going in the absence of a coherent midfield and struggled to get the ball out of their own half. This led to a couple of costly errors at the back which Nakeesha and Aditi capitalised on, to score two more goals.
The opening match of the day saw Jamnabai Narsee (Juhu) play out a goalless draw with Gopal Sharma International (Powai).
