Agxem Sports Club stormed into the next round of the Caniza Peixoto Memorial tournament with an emphatic 5–2 win over Sporting Club of Virabhat at the St Alex Church ground, Curtorim, on Tuesday.
Michael set the tone for the match by scoring in just the 5th minute. Maxwell Castanha added to Virabhat’s woes with a goal in the 22nd minute, giving Agxem a 2 – 0 lead before the first-half break.

making it a 5–0 blowout in favour of Agxem.
Virabhat managed to stem the tide, pulling two goals back late in the game through Rice Fernandes and Sydney Fernandes in the 30th and 47th minute of the game respectively but the gap was too
wide to bridge.

across the pitch. The award was presented by Agxem Sports Club Secretary, Mario Gomes.
