FC Goa picked up their first victory in Hero Indian Super League (Hero ISL) 2020-21 after a 3-1 win over Kerala Blasters FC at the Fatorda Stadium on Sunday. Goals from Igor Angulo in the first and second half as well as a strike from Jorge Mendoza gave the Gaurs maximum points.
Kerala did try their best to find a way back into the contest and nearly set up a tense finish by scoring one in final minute of normal time. Vicente scored the goal after a well-executed header off a Nishu Kumar cross from the right to halve the deficit.
Things went from bad to worse for Kerala in stoppage time when a lapse at the back by Albino resulted in Angulo robbing the Indian custodian of the ball and slotting into an empty net to secure maximum points for his side.
Hero of the Match – Lenny Rodrigues; DHL Winning Pass of the Match – Saviour Gama (FC Goa).
