Sesa clinch victory at the death
Sesa Football Academy narrowly overcame Sporting Clube de Goa 2-1 in the Aiff’s U-19 I-League, at Duler Stadium, Mapusa, on Friday. The match was tied 1-1 at the lemon break.

The lead barely lasted five minutes as Sporting Goa drew level when Manuel Fernandes jumped unopposed at the back post to head in from a flag kick. After the breather the game got intense as both teams went in search of the winner. In the dying minutes, Sporting Goa was reduced to ten men as Ganesh Thakur was momentarily receiving treatment on the touchline. Sesa took the advantage and Avrishto Fernandes headed in to secure the three points for Sesa. PHOTO: A Sporting Clube de Goa and Sesa player jump high to win the aerial ball.
