Joes through to final

St. Joseph's College earned their spot in the final of the Zahira Super 16 Soccer tournament along with Wesley College. The final encounter will take place on September 12 at 4.00 pm at Zahira College Grounds.

St. Joseph's College 1st XI Soccer Team was drawn up against De Mazenod College as their first match. De Mazenod College was a strong side from Kandana who held the reputation for being the former A Division champions. These two teams met each other in a pre-season friendly earlier this year, which was drawn 2-2. The match was played on September 2.

The quarter final match was played on the following Monday and the Josephians had to come across tough challenge against Lumbini College. The Joes forward, Hansa Kalhara became their savior yet again along with another goal under his belt. The only goal of the match was scored soon after the second half began and was more than enough for the lads in blue and white to advance to the semi-finals.

The Semi-final fixtures featuring Joes was drawn against St. Benedict's College, Kotahena. The match took place on last Monday amidst a considerable crowd. Again the first half saw no goal from either side. But the second half of the game witnessed a nail biting 45 minutes of football. Hansa became the hero once again when he netted the 1st goal of the game to put Joes up in front.

Then the Josephian Captain registered another goal from a well-taken free kick. Benedictines responded a few moments later from a penalty. But however much they tried to equalize, time didn't allow it. It was already proved that it was a promising evening for the Josephians when the full time whistle was blown. The final score stood 2-1 with victory to boys from Colombo 10.
