Robin scored in the 42nd minute in front of close to 23,000 home supporters at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium to hand Delhi an advantage in the two-leg semi-finals. The second leg will be played at Margao on December 15.

Friday’s win broke Delhi’s four-match losing streak against Goa in the ISL. They went down in both their league matches in ISL 1 and 2, including a 2-3 defeat this season on December 6 here. Delhi, who finished fourth after the league phase, were the dominant side for most part of the match, having far more possession.
