Carlos Pena: At Fatorda, I want fans to make life difficult for the opponents

That’s how I last played here. I know about the passion the fans have for football and the Club. They have always had our back, and I’m sure they will be there for us again.

“Last time, we couldn’t get any points despite trying till the last minute. We learned a lot and now look forward. I want to thank the fans who traveled to Hyderabad; you guys are lovely. We will be waiting for you on Thursday in Fatorda. Together we are stronger!

“I feel that we are one team, and we need to create an environment that makes our opponents afraid every time they think of playing in Goa, to make their lives on the pitch difficult. And I promise we will fight to put a smile on our fans’ faces and make them happy.”

Going to Fatorda, a special feeling
One can say its fate; for others, just coincidence. When FC Goa walks out to the pitch on Thursday night, it will be 972 days since the Goa faithful experienced a home match at the PJN Stadium in Fatorda. Pena brought down the curtains on his playing career the last time the Gaurs visited their fortress, and now he will be looking to consolidate on a bright start to his coaching career. The Spaniard helped script many a memorable night at Fatorda. And now he fondly looks back at his time in the Orange of FC Goa.

“It gives me chills thinking about going back to Fatorda. It’s a special feeling. All of us are very excited.
We are looking forward to being back in the stadium, playing in front of our fans. And hopefully, we can give them a victory,” the Spaniard stated.
“I remember the trips to the stadium before every matchday. Seeing them welcoming us to the stadium – made us feel like we were coming home. The colors would get more Orange as we got closer to Fatorda.
“Last time I was on the pitch, I didn’t know that would be my last time playing. No one knew that would be the last time fans would see their team in so many years. This has been a learning.
