Performance of FC Goa in ISL The Goans as a whole are totally disappointed with the performance of Goan contingent in ISL. Goans always hold their head high in the football field and football map in India .Never in the history of Goan football or any tournament , the team Goa has been filtered as a residue at the bottom of the table
We have a seasoned trainer as a coach in Zico , perhaps had major share in selection of the team. There is no doubt that he has not been doing half hearted job. The other teams that F.C. has encountered are far more better opponents. We are emotionally attached to our team and it is perfectly normal. The progress in the different matches has not been satisfying graph of progression and that is what disappoints the die hard supporters. That we do not have shooters to finish is poor acceptance of decision. The final analysis depends on scoring, which is a crowning glory The team with 5 Indian members is not an answer to improve the standard of the game. Spectator status does not lead to assimilation of the best skills. There is no doubt that ISL has drawn pointed attention to football as sports in India like never before The foreign players well into retirement in active game are passed 40 years , but still show great promise and tenacity to hold their fort, They are offered astronomical amounts in crores for the participation, besides other undisclosed perks and in comparison to Indian players This ISL is another carnaval like IPL fighting for space in sports .The spectators and supporters have lost heavily betting on their horse with some hope of turning around .The promoters have got their publicity and monies worth twice over. The spectators are the worst and only losers I in the present ISL and should not blame others for their misplaced trust emotionally on F,C Goa. It is a nice entertainment that has caught the fancy of supporters and to that extent the venture has served its purposes, as only Cricket enjoyed the status of supper sports Those playing football are far more than those watching cricket as God of all sports, That position is definitely threatened by ISL successful venture and it will improve at the next occasion Nelson Lopes Chinchinim
