Boumous displayed his intrinsic versatility on the pitch by moving up and down the field, the entire time. He helped create build-ups down the pitch for the Gaurs with his incisive bit of passing and also stood back to defend.

His brilliantly weighted ball inside the box towards Ferran Corominas caught Subhasish Bose in two minds and he brought down Coro resulted in a spot-kick, which the Spaniard finished with ease for 2-0.

Boumous' timely interceptions and tackles to steal possession came handy as well. A last-minute two-footed tackle with perfect timing on Rafael Bastos in the second half kept the game very much in Goa's control.

Boumous teamed up with Mourtada Fall to spearhead the defence and with Edu Bedia to play at the centre of the park and was impressive.
