Rebels got the better of Young Strikers by 2-0 margin in the finals of the Goa leg of Neymar J's Five, played at Don Bosco ground here today.

It was an adrenaline-fuelled battle as young footballers went head to head to secure their spot in the next round of the Neymar Jr's 5 tournament in the country.

The second edition of this tournament, earlier known as Winning 5 and rechristened Neymar Jr's Five brought some fast, nimble and quick-footed footballers of the city together.

This five-a-side football game carries the main objective of scoring as many goals as fast as possible and outplaying the players of the opposing team.
 

The team that concedes a goal has to send one player off the pitch, and each game continues until one team has lost all five players, or for 10 minutes, whichever comes first.

The players did not disappoint as each of them brought their best foot forward in an attempt to give their opponent a strong fight.
