Jamshedpur: FC Goa blanked hosts Jamshedpur FC 3-0 to enter semifinals in their Indian Super League (ISL) match at the JRD Tata Sports Complex, here on Sunday.

A brace from Ferran Corominas (29', 51') and a sublime strike from Manuel Lanzarote was enough for the Gaurs to set up semi-final date with Chennaiyin.

Goalkeeper Subrata Paul received a red card early in the game and Jamshedpur FC with a player short headed into the break trailing by a goal.

They would have thought of making a comeback in the second half but Ferran Corominas' second goal put them on the back foot.

The home team tried hard but found it very tough to penetrate Goa's defense

In the 69th minute, Manuel Lanzarote scored the third goal to put the last nail in Jamshedpur's coffin.

Naveen Kumar also was shown a red card with 15 minutes left in the half but Goa braved the situation well and kept denying the home team any opening.

A clinical show by Goa and they finish third on the points table while Jamshedpur are placed fifth.
