Football
MARGAO, APRIL 3. An injury time goal by Fabio Soares helped Vasco hold Churchill Brothers to a 1-1 draw in the 15th round of the National Football League (NFL) match played at the Nehru stadium here today. Churchill, which controlled the proceedings for the major part of the match, surged ahead in the 27th minute when Yakubu tapped in a flag-kick by Roque Baretto. Aqueel Ansari sold a dummy to Yakubu unsighting the Vasco goalkeeper Virender Singh and Yakubu, standing near the goal-line, tapped the ball in.
Vasco failed to play with conviction in the first half but showed a lot of fighting spirit in the later part of the match. After coming close to equalising on three occasions, Vasco restored parity in injury time when Soares banged home from close a pass from substitute Denis Cabral. The draw took Churchill to 14 points from 15 matches while Vasco, which is below Churchill Brothers in 11th place, took its tally to 13 points from the same number of matches. — PTI
