I am sure if we had the statistics of chances created we would lead there too. So I can safely say that the team is doing well but it’s important that we continue the momentum. In a such long leagues consistency is the key.”
Sporting Goa will be hoping that their inform strikers Francis Dadzie and Victorino Fernandes are on target this Sunday. The Panjim side has also ripped dividends from the recent goal scoring form of their midfielder Cajetan Fernandes. Costa is expected to field a largely unchanged side tomorrow.
