Kolkata's Chowbagha High School ended the last hopes of Guwahati's lone challenge in the Reliance Foundation Youth Sports National leg, as they thrashed their Highlanders counterpart Sundarbari High School with a 4-0 victory to reserve a berth in the Junior Boys National finals.
Chowbagh boys have now set up the title clash against Sacred Heart - Kochi who had earlier in the day won against Our Lady of Perpetual Succour High School - Goa 3-2 in another semi-final at Cooperage Ground.
In the Senior Girls semi-finals, Rosary Higher Secondary School overcame a spirited challenge from P S Senior Secondary School-Chennai to win 3-1, continuing to maintain Goa's charge in the RFYS National leg. All three boys teams from Goa had lost their respective semis earlier.
However, Rosary still have the last hurdle to cross when they will face Mumbai's Fr. Agnel School & Jr College team in the final. The Mumbai lass put up a strong performance to outsmart Chaturdash Palli High School Kolkata 2-0 in the other semis.
With the finalist line up set in all four categories, the boys in Yellow from Kochi have emerged as the most consistent teams having made it to the Jr Boys, Sr, Boys and College Boys summit clash. Coincidently, it will once again be a Kochi vs Kolkata fight for the title in Junior Boys and College Boys, as the two cities India Super League teams Kerala Blasters and Atletico de Kolkata have faced earlier.
RFYS finals will be played at Cooperage Ground on Saturday. All the matches will be broadcast live on Sony Six & Sony Six HD from 12 noon.
