Jamshedpur FC and FC Goa have faced each other twice with the Gaurs winning both the matches
SPORTS | FC Goa coach Sergio Lobera is banking on his team’s collective effort to tide over star striker Ferran Corominas’ absence when they take on Jamshedpur FC in the Hero Indian Super League at Jamshedpur’s JRD Tata Sports Complex on Thursday.
Last season’s Golden Boot winner Corominas has once again been a key for Goa with the Spanish forward currently the joint top-scorer with six goals and four assists to his name. Ferrando’s men started their campaign with victory at Mumbai City but have since endured successive draws against Bengaluru FC, ATK, NorthEast United and Kerala Blasters.
The Jamshedpur-based outfit looked to have broken that frustrating run in the clash against Kerala but two second-half goals from David James’ men put paid to all such hopes.|ISL 2018 – 19
Ferrando’s side are one of the four remaining unbeaten teams in the league and will be locking horns with an opponent who have been firing on all cylinders.
Unlike Jamshedpur, Goa started their campaign with a draw against the NorthEast United before registering three impressive wins on the trot. Lobera’s men have been turning heads with their goal-scoring exploits and have already registered 14 of them so far in four matches.
SQUAD: Lobera will have to make do without Corominas’ services after he picked up a straight red card in the side’s 4-2 win over FC Pune City. This is the first time that the Spaniard will not feature for Goa since he made his debut in the ISL against Chennaiyin FC last season.
