MARGAO, JUNE 9
Sao Jose de Areal Sports Club edged past Navelim Villagers Union 1-0 to sail into the quarter-finals of 18th Super Soccer tournament organised by United Boys of Dando at St John Baptist ground, Dando, Benaulim on Wednesday. There was no score at half time.
The all-important goal came midway through the second half when Charlton was fouled by Navelim Villagers Union and the referee without any hesitation awarded the free kick which was taken by Mario Rebello which gave no chance to veteran goalkeeper Chandrakant Naik.
Stung by the setback, Navelim Villagers Union tried their level best but Sao Jose de Areal rearguard was strong and never allowed their rivals to look at their goal.
