Margao: Diego Mauricio scored his 10th goal of the campaign but failed to prevent Odisha FC from losing again in the ISL-17 at Nehru Stadium, Fatorda, on Wednesday evening.

FC Goa rode goals from Alberto Noguera (18th), Jorge Ortiz (26th) and Ivan Gonzalez (75th) to win 3-1. Brazilian marksman Mauricio pulled back one at the half-hour mark as Odisha FC trailed 1-2 at half-time.

Hopes of an equalizer were dashed as FC Goa restored their two-goal lead half an hour into the second session.

The win pushed FC Goa into fourth place with 27 points, while Odisha FC stayed rooted to the bottom of the table with a mere 9 points after suffering their 11th defeat.
