FC Goa and Delhi have faced each other 10 times out of which FC Goa have won six matches while Delhi have won on three occasions
Sports : FC Goa coach Sergio Lobera will demand a response from his side when they take on Delhi Dynamos in an Indian Super League clash at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Goa on Thursday.
This was after the Goan outfit suffered a 1-4 defeat in Jamshedpur which ended their unbeaten start to the season. Sergio Lobera himself admitted that the performance was the “worst” he has seen in his tenure as they came up second best in every department.
As for Delhi, in seven matches this season, they haven’t been at their absolute best. Manager Josep Gombau will hope that they are eighth time lucky. After dropping down to the fourth spot in the league table, a win on Thursday will take Goa back to pole position. It will be interesting to see if Lobera decides to change personnel in key positions especially with Brandon Fernandes getting back to full fitness.
ISL 2018-19
The game against Delhi Dynamos will also see Goa’s very own Romeo Fernandes return to the Fatorda Stadium. The winger, who enjoyed a purple patch under Zico, joined Delhi last season and since then, has had a patchy form.
It remains to be seen if Fernandes would start as although he has travelled with the team, he has only just recovered from a finger injury.
SQUAD: Goa have scored 15 goals in five matches. Six of these have come from the talismanic Ferran Corominas, who currently tops the Hero ISL goal-scoring chart along with NorthEast United FC’s Bartholomew Ogbeche. The Spaniard was suspended for Goa’s defeat against Jamshedpur and his absence was evident throughout the match. Miguel Fernandez, who replaced Coro against Jamshedpur, had 16 touches in the attacking third but managed zero attempts on goal.
