GOA PRO LEAGUE
Goan FC ease past Vasco SC
Goan Football Club registered a fluent 3-0 win over Vasco Sports Club in
the Goa Professional League, played at Duler Stadium, Mapusa, on Sunday.
All the three goals came in the second half of the play through Liston
Colaco, Imran Khan and Lalawmpula. Goan FC are now leading at the top
with 26 points from 10 games, while Vasco SC are on 10 points from
eleven games.
Goan FC started the match with young experienced Liston Colaco upfront
with Kapil Hoble and Princeton Rebello in the midfield and the trio made
up a great pair tormenting the Vasco SC players with their quick passing
and fast pace game. The Goan FC side continued their rich form in the
league as they dominated the play with possession play, however, they
couldn't get the final act right, as they played a goalless first half
draw.
After much probing, Goan FC took the lead at the hour mark through
Liston Colaco, who gave final touches to Lalawmpula’s cross.
Once up by a goal, Goan FC doubled the lead in the 71st minute through
Imran Khan, who on receiving the pass from the midfield, dribbled past
couple of Vasco SC defenders and shot low in the nets, 2-0.
Ten minutes later, Goan FC were there once again with their third and
this time it was Lalawmpula to grab full point for Goan FC.
