Data check: How coach Sergio Lobera fared during his time at FC Goa

In a move that has received widespread criticism, FC Goa did the unthinkable on Saturday by showing head coach Sergio Lobera the door alongside his two assistant coaches Jesus Tato and Manuel Sayabera midway during the 2019-’20 Indian Super League season.

In a strange turn of events, the club management gave Lobera the axe despite FC Goa leading the table in the ongoing campaign. This is also the first occasion in the history of the ISL where a manager has left half-way towards the season.

Whether this unexpected decision will have adverse bearing on FC Goa’s fight to grab the AFC Champions League spot and qualify for the playoffs remains to be seen but Lobera departs FC Goa with an impressive record.
