But Jose Fernandes restored parity within a few minutes as his well-struck effort sailed into the roof of the net.
Wilfred Fernandes gave St. Estevam the lead in the eighth minute of the second half off a solo effort.
But man of the match Darryl Rasquinha came right back with an equaliser for St. Anthony's following a pass from Godfrey Gonsalves.
St. Anthony's got the match-winner in the dying minutes after Renato came in as a substitute and found the net.
In the second match, Aldona United confirmed their place in the quarterfinals with a 2-0 win against Raia.
