Goa: Kerala Blasters FC came from behind to beat FC Goa 2-1 in their Indian Super League match at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Fatorda on Monday.
Goa made a positive start as a quality cross from Richarlyson found Cesar in a good position at the far post and the Brazilian striker outjumped Josu Currais to power in a header beyond a helpless Sandip Nandy in Kerala's goal to make it 1-0 for the hosts.
Kerala found their equaliser straight from the restart after Mehtab Hossain found Mohammed Rafique with space on the right. Rafique's dangerous low cross across Goa's six-yard box was met by Rafi to make it 1-1.
Kervens Belfort scored the winner for the men in yellow late in the tie, the Haitian driving at Goa's defence and unleashing a thunderous effort from distance to make it 2-1.
