ISL 2024-25: Boris Singh’s Lone Goal, Defensive Resilience Help FC Goa Soar Past Kerala Blasters
Indian Super League: Boris Singh scored the lone goal as FC Goa notched their 50th clean sheet in the competition and continued their formidable form as they edged past Kerala Blasters FC 1-0 in the Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 season at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium here on Thursday.
It was an intensely cagey affair between the two teams, as neither was allowing an inch to their opposition. It was an interesting midfield tussle, with the Kerala Blasters FC preferring their homegrown talents, Vibin Mohanan and Freddy Lallawmawma, against FC Goa’s Carl McHugh-led midfield.
The first opportunity of the game fell to Iker Guarrotxena when the Spaniard struck the post from a well-planned freekick. It was straight out of the training ground and it took the opposition defenders by surprise. However, it was cleared away after hitting the far post with Sachin Suresh completely beaten between the sticks.
