Manuel Lanzarote scored a fine brace to end FC Goa's three-match win less run as his side beat Jamshedpur FC 2-1 in an Indian Super League (ISL) game on Thursday. Lanzarote opened the scoring with a penalty just before half-time before doubling the lead in the second half. The win keeps Goa in the race for the play-off spots, two points ahead of Mumbai City FC, who are at the fifth spot with 14 points from nine matches. Goa are fourth with 16 points from nine matches.

Andre Bikey fouled Brandon Fernandes to give away a penalty after the attacking midfielder had brilliantly combined with Lanzarote. The latter had to retake his shot and put it in the same spot as previously to give Goa the lead. Jamshedpur came out all guns blazing at the start of the second half and the pressure told when Jerry Mawihmingthanga found Trindade Goncalves unmarked in the box for an easy header. With 54 minutes on the clock, the game opened up for both teams. Ferran Corominas and Lanzarote both fired warning shots before producing an exceptional move to get back in the lead.

Brandon's ball was perfectly weighted for Lanzarote and he beat Tiri with ease did the same with the keeper and wheeled away in celebration. Substitutes Kervens Belfort and Farukh Choudhary almost made an immediate impact when they combined to create a close chance. Jamshedpur poured forward in numbers, and Belfort was at it again when he set up Izu Azuka who missed a golden chance from near the six yard box.
