FC Goa reserve squad opened their Second Division I-League campaign in stunning fashion as they recorded a 5-1 victory over Madhya Bharat SC at the Bambolim Athletic Stadium on Friday.
Liston Colaco got on the scoresheet as early as the second minute and the side used that as a catapult to net two more goals before half time through Aaren D’Silva’s first time shot and Yasir Mohammed’s effort. Madhya Bharat SC pulled one goal back through Haileuyibe Iranggau after a miss-pass in the opening minutes of the
second period.
But the Gaurs pushed forward relentlessly as Krishna Pandit restored the three-goal advantage moments after the away side’s goal. Aaren then completed his brace midway through the half as he slotted past goalkeeper Sanju Thapa for the
team’s fifth.
The Gaurs got off to the best possible start with skipper Liston Colaco putting his team in front in under two minutes of play.
