FC Goa head coach Juan Ferrando is hoping that his team would perform better than they’ve done in their previous game against Iranian side Persepolis FC in the 2021 AFC Champions League. Edu Bedia, who scored the only goal against in the previous outing, is doubtful ahead of Friday’s game.

FC Goa head coach Juan Ferrando feels that they have made a lot of mistakes and lost the ball on many occasions en-route their 1-2 loss against Iran’s Persepolis FC last Tuesday evening. The Gaurs took the lead in the 14th minute, but Persepolis pulled back with two goals within the next 10 minutes.

FC Goa head coach asserted that they need to have control in the way they attack, ahead of their second group stage match against Al-Wahada in the 2021 AFC Champions League, this Thursday evening. The Gaurs became the first Indian team to feature in the group stages of the top-tier Asian tourney.

Indian footballer Romeo Fernandes admitted that he was waiting to go back to FC Goa, with him making a comeback after four years. The right-winger was the first Indian footballer to feature in a South American professional league when he made his debut for Brazilian side Atletico Paranaense.
