While Jamshedpur FC didn’t head into the international hiatus in the most ideal manner after a 3-1 defeat against ATK, the Gaurs rang out 4-2 winners at the Mumbai Football Arena when they faced the Islanders on November 7. Goals from Lenny Rodrigues, Ferran Corominas, Hugo Boumous and Carlos Pena sealed an emphatic win for a last season’s runners-up in Mumbai earlier this month. Jamshedpur FC could not match up to ATK’s attacking philosophy executed to perfection by Antonio Lopez Habas’ men when the team travelled to play their first away fixture of the ongoing ISL season.
Come Tuesday, the hosts are placed third on the points table while Jamshedpur FC occupy fifth spot on the ISL standings currently. Having a remarkable start to ISL-6, Jamshedpur FC have managed to secure two wins and a draw, and have lost only one match in the four played so far. Looking to recover their momentum, Antonio Iriondo’s men will give it all they have got on the greens of the Fatorda but the team in Orange will certainly not make it easy for the traveling side.
FC Goa host Jamshedpur FC at 7.30pm on Tuesday, November 26 evening and the match will be televised LIVE on the Star Sports Network as well as Hotstar.
