A foul inside the box was spotted correctly by the referee as he awarded YSA the Penalty. Aayan Desai stepped up on the spot-kick and made no mistake as his shot beat the keeper to find the net.

The goal help build YSA’s confidence as they started moving the ball better and soon the second goal came in for them. Around the half-hour mark, YSA were awarded a free-kick which Vipul Gorai defence failed to clear away properly, the ball fell to an unmarked Aniket Kanojiya whose bullet of a shot beat everyone to find the net.

With a comfortable 2-0 lead, YSA were happy to sit back and defend with regular forays into the attack as Vipul Gorai FC looked to come back in the game. However, there were no more goals as the game ended 2-0 with YSA clinching the title.

FT: YSA (Bandra) (Aayan Desai 25’ (p), Aniket Kanojiya 30’) 2 – 0 Vipul Gorai FC
