FC Goa produced a resilient performance on Thursday night as they recovered from a goal down to claim a 2-1 win over Kerala Blasters to go top in the 2015 Indian Super League at Fatorda's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium.

Mohammad Rafi put the tourists ahead in the 24th minute after clinically converting Rahul Bheke's cross into the goalbox.

However, Leo Moura scored the equaliser in the added time of the first half before Gregory Arnolin scored the decisive goal through a header in the 83rd minute.

With the win, Goa replaced FC Pune City as the table leaders, while Kerala are fifth after suffering their third defeat in five matches.
