Tomorrow, the other new entrants, Jamshedpur FC take on defending champions ATK in their first home game in Jamshedpur.

An incredibly exciting game comes to an end in Fatorda, Goa as Bengaluru FC's hype train get derailed after two wins at the start of the ISL season. Controversies in the game involving the BFC keeper who was sent off for using unnecessary force on Coro. Coro, was the man of the match for his hat-trick that made the difference for the home side. Miku grabbed a brace but it wasn't enough for the away side. Still, BFC pulled back with two goals to make it 3-3 but Coro's third goal put the game out of the newbies' hands.
90+1' - It's all happening in Goa!! Arana is through on goal after a through-ball but Abhra Mondal rushes out and gets his hand on the ball outside the box. The ref only shows a yellow card. That should have been a red as it was a clear scoring chance for Arana.
71' - Brandon Fernandes takes an incredibly speculative effort from the middle of the park but it is way way over as he tried to catch the BFC custodian Abhra Mondal off his line.
69' - CLOSE!! Juanan saves the day for BFC as he makes a last-ditch tackle after Coro had gone past Abhra Mondal on the left-side in the box. Corner for FC Goa.
62' - GOA TAKE THE LEAD AGAIN!!! Corominas grabs his hat-trick as he rounds up Abhra Mondal after a great ball from the midfield put the Spaniard through. He ran away from Juanan's sliding tackle and around the substitute keeper Mondal and calmly slots it into the open goal. It's raining goals here at the JLN Stadium in Fatorda...
60' - IT'S ALL SQUARE AGAIN!!! Miku grabs his second after a miscommunication in the Goa defense as Miku gets past two defenders and chips the ball over the rushing Kattimani. Great play from the away side.
56' - GOALL!!! Bengaluru pull one back as it is the same story again. Edu Garcia with the set-piece and Partaalu with the header as the Aussie gets his third goal in two matches. Kattimani came out of his line and Partaalu rose the highest to nod it into the goal.
55' - Good move by the away side as Udanta uses his pace and goes on the tear along the right wing but his cross is dealt with by Pinheiro as he had Miku lurking inside the box.
53' - CLOSE!!! Coro gets called offside in an erratic decision from the linesman after being put through on the right with Brandon alongside him to slot the ball in. Bengaluru escape!!
52' - Goa are toying around with the Bengaluru attackers with great control in the back as Bengaluru FC have stopped with their pressing due to being a man short.
45' - The second half action is kicked off by the home side as we are all set to witness an interesting half of football with BFC being down to 10 men. Goa will have the advantage. Can they extend their lead ?
An exciting half ends with the home side leading 3-1 and Bengaluru FC down one man as we have had plenty of talking points here in Goa. Gurpreet Singh Sandhu saw red as he went into an anger-fuelled fury on Lanzarote and was penalized accordingly. FC Goa have been highly clinical and apart from the one goal, Bengaluru have never looked comfortable in the match. Stay tuned to Sportskeeda as we bring all the live action of the second half.
39' - Lanzarote makes no mistake !!! Goa lead by 3-1 as Lanzarote sends the new BFC keeper Mondal the wrong way and scores it calmly to put the home crowd into a frenzy of cheers.
In a forced change due to the red card to their No.1, Abhra Mondal makes his way to the pitch as Rahul Bheke is sacrificed. First action and a penalty for Mondal.
