SC Cavelossim SOWS off to winning start

PANAJI

Cavelossim SOWS dominated the first half of the match with continuous attacks in the Cuncolim Union half. But the Cuncolim Union defence kept their composure and warded off the attacks. The best chance was created by Cavelossim after Jeromina Colaco played a lovely ball to Nevilla Colaco who tried a shot at goal but was very much off target.
Cavelossim's front women Jeromina, Namita and Nevilla kept terrorising the Cuncolim Union defence with a string of attacks but were all warded away by Cuncolim's rock solid back four of Malvita, Marina, Maheshwari and Lifa. At half time the score was 0-0.
In the 15th minute of the second half, Cuncolim goalie Mayflower Colaco couldn't save her team after Namita Govekar slotted home the goal on her own shot's rebound. In the 26th minute of the second half, Cavelossim's Kushboo Saundatikar headed a goal making it 2-0 for her side.
In the 30th minute of the second half, Cuncolim scored a consolation through Vailanka D'Souza.
SOWS striker Namita Govekar earned the Player of the match award.
