MARGAO
CAC, Cansaulim made short work of CDJ, Ribandar 2-0 to storm into the semi-finals of All Goa 45th Custodio Memorial inter village football tournament organized by Raia Sporting Club at Panchayat ground, Raia on Sunday. The match was goalless at half time.
Cansualim enjoyed more ball possession and had better share of exchanges with striker Domnic Soares and Agnelo D'Souza giving torrid time to rival defenders as the duo breached the rival defence umpteen number of times but their efforts yielded no result.
At the other end, the Ribandar side took time to settle down and gradually started penetrating the rival citadel. Midway in the opening session, Agnelo D'Souza outwitted a couple of rival defenders and his volley missed the mark narrowly.
Post resumption, Cansualim were a dominant lot and found the width and pace on the flanks to probe away in the CDJ citadel. Cansaulim finally went ahead in the 35th minute when Domnic picked up the ball from the flanks and unleashed a snap shot that crashed into the net, giving no chance to the Ribandar goalkeeper. Cansaulim then intensified their attacks and Agnelo made it 2-0 for his team. Down 0-2, CDJ Ribandar could not find any answers and could not get past the Cansaulim goalkeeper.
