Goa XI face Zambia in friendly

The Goa Select XI go into the match against the Zambian national football team not knowing where the assembled squad stands against the Africans.

Coach Armando Colaco said that it was an honour for him to be the coach of Goa XI for this prestigious event and a golden chance to play a higher ranked opponent. He also mentioned that the mood in the camp was upbeat with the Goan youngsters keen to lock horns with such a strong opponent and showcase their talent.

But Armando was candid enough to say that the match could go anyway. His side could get trashed or cause an upset, but for him Zambia are the favourites for the match to be played at the Nehru Stadium, Margao.

Armando named his likely starting eleven with right-back Valeriano Rebello as the captain and goalkeeper Felix D'Souza as the vice-captain of the team.

The match is slated for a 16.00 IST kick-off with DD Sports showing the match live.


Likely GOA XI

Felix D'Souza; Valeriano Rebello [Captain], Rowilson Rodrigues, Antun Mathew Kovacic, Cresson Antao; Peter Carvalho, Godwin Diogo Franco, Lenny Rodrigues, Denzil Franco; Ranti Martins Soleye, James Moga
