FC Goa have picked up a massive win over East Bengal, defeating them 3-2 at home. The match was a hotly contested affair, with the hosts falling short despite a valiant effort.

Debjit Majumder was started in goal to replace Prabhsukhan Gill after the former Kerala Blasters player’s woeful performance last time out. However, things didn’t change much for the Torch Bearers at home.

The game started with Herrera scoring two quickfire goals, putting the home team under immense pressure. It eventually let up when Madih Talal was able to dispatch a penalty to make it 2-1 shortly after.

The second half saw Goa on the front foot again, as Herrera completed his hat-trick in the 71st minute. McHugh’s red card allowed East Bengal a way back into the game, with David scoring from the bench to make it 3-2 in the 85th minute. However, it wasn’t enough to salvage a point at home.
