FC Goa hammer Jamshedpur FC, finish on top of Indian Super League table

FC Goa created history by becoming the first Indian side to qualify for the AFC Champions League Group Stage by finishing atop the Indian Super League (ISL) table with an incredible 5-0 win over Jamshedpur FC. The league stage winners also became the first side to win the ISL League Winners Shield.

Ferran Corominas’ (11’), Hugo Boumous (70', 90'), Jackichand Singh (84') and Mourtada Fall (87') scored to provide the Gaurs with an unassailable six-point lead at the top of the table.

It was Jamshedpur who enjoyed the positive moments in the opening minutes and it would be fair to suggest that the opening goal arrived against the run of play.
