Witty International (Malad) picked up full three points with a 1-0 win over MES Crescent High School (Mumbra) in a keenly-contested boys U-16 fourth-division match of the MSSA inter-school football tournament at St Francis D'Assisi ground, Borivli.
Witty International got the match-winner in the 25th minute through Ayaz Ahmad, who made no mistake from close range after the opposition goalkeeper only managed to partly stop a square pass from Arsh Singh down the right.

Having conceded late in the game, it was always going to be difficult for Crescent to make a comeback and it got further difficult when they were reduced to 10 boys following a straight red card to Fahad Balbale.
