Building on their victory against Jamshedpur FC, the Gaurs delivered a confident, attacking performance that showcased sharpness in the final third and composure throughout the ninety minutes.<\/strong><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The home side wasted no time asserting dominance, as Dejan Drazic opened the scoring in the 4th minute with a smart finish after a slick passing move. Goa\u2019s early tempo and pressing kept Inter Kashi pinned back in their own half, with the midfield trio of David Timor, Harsh Patre, and Borja Herrera dictating play.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Their control was rewarded again in the 37th minute, when Borja Herrera doubled the lead with a precise strike from just outside the box, finishing off a move that began down the left flank. The Spaniard\u2019s goal gave the hosts breathing space before half-time and reflected Goa\u2019s fluid attacking rhythm.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-106836\" src=\"https:\/\/goakhabar-com.preview.jikut.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/24.10.25.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"279\" \/><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Borja capped off a superb individual display in the 42nd minute, converting calmly from inside the area to make it 3\u20130 and seal all three points for the Gaurs. The result underlined FC Goa\u2019s attacking intent, with Drazic and Herrera combining seamlessly behind the forwards and Muhammed Nemil adding creativity from wide areas.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">After the interval, FC Goa maintained their dominance. Inter Kashi struggled to break through a well-organised defence marshalled by Sandesh Jhingan and Aakash Sangwan, while Hrithik Tiwari remained largely untested in goal.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The clean sheet also means Goa have now gone two consecutive matches in the tournament without conceding a goal. With this win, FC Goa move to the top of Group B, ensuring their place in the Super Cup semi-finals as group leaders.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Inter Kashi, meanwhile, will need to regroup quickly after a difficult night where they struggle to contain Goa\u2019s intensity and link up play.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Goa Khabar:FC Goa continued their perfect start to the Super Cup 2025 with a commanding 3\u20130 win over Inter Kashi at the Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Goa.
