The 2-1 scoreline must have made it look like a tight contest but there was no doubting Dempo’s superiority over Orkay Mills. Francis D’Souza celebrated his 24th birthday with a brace, the matchwinner coming six minutes after Bernard Pereira had drawn level for the local side. The final was watched by over 25,000 spectators, the organisers closing the gates an hour before kick-off.
