Igor Angulo struck at the injury time of the first half to hand FC Goa a 1-0 win over Odisha FC, their second successive win in the Hero Indian Super League here on Saturday. The win propelled FC Goa to the fourth spot in the standings. Angulo (45+1st minute) netted the winner to help Juan Ferrando's side register another victory. Arshdeep Singh shone for Odisha but their inefficiency upfront meant Stuart Baxter's side remained winless in the competition.

Vinit Rai was handed his first start of the season as Odisha made four changes to their line-up. Ferrando rang in just one change as Alberto Noguera replaced Edu Bedia. Goa outplayed their opponents in the first half and headed into the break with a one-goal lead. The Gaurs dominated proceedings from the start while Odisha decided to stay compact and absorb the pressure. Jorge Ortiz Mendoza, a constant threat on the left flank, had an opportunity to give Goa the lead during the 16th minute. Brandon Fernandes won the ball and laid down a pass for Ortiz on the left.
