FC Goa register maiden win in ISL 2014

Substitute Tolgay Ozbey scored an injury time goal, as dominant FC Goa rallied from behind to beat Delhi Dynamos 2-1, and register their maiden win in the Indian Super League (ISL) on Saturday.

Ozbey snatched the winner in the 90th minute, before Shaikh Jewel Raja (72nd) equalised for the hosts.  

The Dynamos were put ahead in the seventh minute of the match by skipper Mads Junker.

The win takes FC Goa to four points from five matches, while Delhi remain on six points from five games.

Coach Zico made three changes, bringing in Mandar Rao Dessai, Romeo Fernandes and Jewel Raja, and the move paid off as the trio put Delhi under tremendous pressure, especially in the second half.

FC Goa, who were looking for their first win, started on a promising note, as they made inroads and had two early chances to take the lead, but for striker Miroslav Slepicka failing on both occasions.

The visitors, on the other hand, played a composed game and tried to catch the rival defence on the wrong foot, with counter-attacks.

The Dynamos' ploy paid off, as they took the lead in the seventh minute, when Junker scored from the second attempt.

Hans Mulder orchestrated the move from the middle and relayed the ball to Bruno Herrero Arias on the right, who sent a goalmouth cross for Junker to do the rest.

The home team got a double blow when they lost play maker Andre Santos, to an injury, while tackling Stijin Houben.
