Prince Edward School coach Shaun De Souza said the match was very physical and they had to change their game plan.
“I am happy with the win although the game was physical and we actually had to change our game plan. We changed our game plan into more running we were not taking contact because St Ignatius were big in size so the boys ensured that they did a lot of running and in the end they made it. The boys were very happy to win because when we first saw them during the first half we thought they could beat us since they looked so stronger,” said De Souza.
