NEW DELHI, Nov 13 (PTI): FC Goa got their act together after a couple of winless outings as they handed Delhi Dynamos an embarrassing 4-1 defeat, riding on Youness Bengelloun�s twin strikes in an Indian Super League encounter, here today.
The victory couldn�t have come at a better time as it kept them in the reckoning for a semi-final berth in the cash-rich league.
Bengelloun scored in the 18th and 48th minute while captain Robert Pires and Australian striker Tolgay Ozbey scored one apiece, in the 53rd and 60 minute respectively.
Gustavo Santos pulled one back for the hosts, when he converted from the spot in the 73rd minute, but that was just a consolation goal as was evident from the faces of the disappointed Delhi fans and players.
The victory, a very important one for FC Goa, finally put an end to the visiting side�s search for three points, their second in the tournament, while extending Dynamos� winless run.
The Dynamos have now slipped to the bottom following four draws, three losses and a solitary win, while Goa improved a rung to move upto seventh spot with four defeats, two draws and as many wins in the eight-team franchise-based tournament.
The Goa outfit went ahead when Frenchman Bengelloun found the net almost halfway into the first half.
