ISL 2016: Strongest XI for FC Goa

FC Goa ISL
The team will look forward to making it all the way this season

Attack

Striker – Robin Singh

Zico has big plans for new striker Robin Singh

FC Goa might have lost the Nigerian goalscoring machine Dudu but have found their perfect replacement for him in Indian striker Robin Singh. Robin Singh’s eye for goal, shooting ability and top class finishing has seen him transform into one of India’s most lethal strikers in the modern game.

After being picked up by Delhi Dynamos in the second season of the ISL, Robin topped the score charts for Roberto Carlos’ side with four goals. He also opened the scoring for Delhi at their home leg when they faced FC Goa in the semifinals last season. Now that the 26-year-old joins the Gaurs, FC Goa fans will be eager to see if Robin Singh can lead them to their first ever ISL title.


Striker – Reinaldo

Reinaldo FC Goa
Reinaldo was the leading goal scorer for the Gaurs last season

A youth product of CR Flamengo in Brazil, Reinaldo da Cruz Oliveira is the best-attacking option in front of goal alongside Robin Singh. Having also played for Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain, Reinaldo brings in a wealth of experience having played in various countries around the globe, such as Japan, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Italy and France. Having signed for Gaurs last season, Reinaldo went on to prove his worth, emerging as FC Goa’s leading goal scorer with seven goals in eleven appearances.

His stunning hat-trick against Kerala Blasters in a 5-2 win was one of his best moments. At 37 years of age, Reinaldo still has the ability to find the back of the net with his presence putting FC Goa ahead. And now having joined manager Zico once again for the third season, Reinaldo will be the leading strike force for the men in blue.
