Salgaocar’s U-18s stun AIFF juniors in Goa Football Association's U-18 league
Looking to emulate the impressive performances of the U-19s, Salgaocar’s U-18s put on a prolific display to stun AIFF juniors in the opener of GFA’s U-18 league played at the SAG ground in Benaulim. There are a total of 6 teams featuring and the league shall be played on a home and away basis. The only goal of the game was scored in the 7th minute by Clifton Barbosa who got himself into great position to slot in a Shane Rodrigues corner.
The Greens played an attacking game right through, hardly ever allowing the AIFF juniors to settle down or offering them any space. Beniston Barretto was outstanding for the Greens in goal and thwarted the rival forwards time and again. Denil Rebello came close to doubling the lead for Salgaocar but saw his free-kick crash against the upright.
Salgaocar’s juniors next face Sporting Clube de Goa juniors on 11th April at T.B. Cunha Sports Complex, Cansaulim.
