Bengaluru: Bengaluru FC blank FC Goa 2-0 in their Indian Super League (ISL) match at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium, here on Friday.

The league debutants, Bengaluru FC, broke the deadlock from a set piece and it was a header by Edu Garcia which separated both sides at the halfway mark.

In the second half, Bengaluru played the holding game which frustrated the visitors. The half did not see much of the attacking from the visitors even after trailing in the last 45.

However to make matters worse for them, the table toppers, Bengaluru FC, found another goal which guaranteed a win for them. Dimas Delgado's goal in the 82nd minute helped them a sigh of relief.

The hosts make it 5 wins in a row and continue their home dominance while the visitors are still placed sixth at the table.
