Very good result for Goan fans. Now we can expect a better team next year. Goa should be hammered in all remaining games this year. Next year they can make ticket price 5000. #Happy Moment
somebody please tell zico old is not always gold and also romeo showed yesterday why he was not getting chance in the national team. SC is not that much fool zitna hm samajh rhe the.
A masterclass display in pressing and harrying the opposition leading to errors from Thoi Singh. He tore Debrabrata Roy a new arse and muted Mandar and bossed the entire side of the pitch he payed. I liked Jayesh and his athleticism and energy; he will not score a lot of goals but clearly the boy has talent and can work as one of the wide players tucked-in.
Zico's tactics were strange and you have to question him sticking to Reinaldo, Joffre and Andrade for clearly they are struggling. I couldn't believe it when Andrade picked up that ball, he is an amateur 'keeper and while Kattimani might not be an outstanding GK, he will be better than Andrade who has looked school-boy like in all of the matches. Reinaldo is just poor; limited in ability and doesn't get involved with his wide players as effectively. Leo Moura ran out of steam sometime against ATK and Denson showed why he is just an average player. It was funny seeing Debabrata Roy getting fucked all game by Thoi, and Romeo jumping out of 50-50s which would infuriate any coach.
A chastening experience for FC Goa, who will surely have to shuffle their pack and start making some changes instead of sticking to Zico's best buds in the team.
A brilliant game by Chennaiyin whose back-line was rarely exposed due to their excellent midfield. Thoi nullified Mandar and Jayesh pushed Keenan back and Joffre and Leo Moura didn't have it in them yesterday to get by Raphael Augusto and Khabra, both of whom were intelligent in covering the spaces. Mendoza (3 goals) and Elano (2 assists) will get the headlines, but the game was won in central midfield with Thoi, Rapahel Augusto, Khabra and Jayesh bossing the game.
the thing with ISL is that no team can sustain its form beyond a couple of games..thats where the bigsquad /bench comes into play..which ever team has mastered that will survive to the finals
Whilst Zico, Roberto Carlos, Cesar Farias, are all in serious need of some help from a proper Assistant to help them understand their Indian players better , as well as recruit better Indians

The pecking order should be Jayesh > Balwant > Jeje.
