Goa: FC Goa are set to kick off the new season of the Indian Super League (ISL) with a home game against Jamshedpur FC. The match will be played at the Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Margao on September 17. FC Goa finished third in the last ISL season and were three points behind Mohun Bagan Super Giant, who became the champions with 48 points. Meanwhile, Jamshedpur FC was in the second-last position in the league table. They managed only five victories in 22 matches while sharing the points with their opponents on six occasions.
