Bartholomew Ogbeche (FWD), Kerala Blasters FC:

Kerala Blasters kicked off the 2019-20 ISL season with a 2-1 win over ATK at the Kaloor Stadium in Kochi. Blasters skipper Bartholomew Ogbeche was the star performer of the match with his two goals in the first half.  Kerala skipper Ogbeche put his team in the lead in the space of 15 minutes. The first goal came off a penalty when Pronay Halder tugged Jairo Rodrigues' shirt and Ogbeche was predictably clinical by slotting the ball into the bottom-right corner. His second goal showed his caliber as a player. Pronay Halder's error while clearing the ball made it easy for the Nigerian to collect the ball in position. Ogbeche made it look simple by striking the ball well past Arindam Bhattacharya, which proved to be the decisive goal in the end.

Carl McHugh (MF), ATK:

ATK went 1-0 up early in the game when they were put in front through a scorching Carl McHugh goal in just the 6th minute. Javi Hernandez's free-kick from outside the box was cushioned in superbly by Agus Garcia and his defensive partner McHugh struck a sweet volley to collect an early goal.

Aridane Santana (FWD), Odisha FC:

Jamshedpur bossed the midfield after scoring the opening goal but Odisha's Jerry created a moment of magic by sending a low cross into the centre from the right for Santana who stunned the crowd with his fierce strike.

Carlos Pena (DEF), FC Goa:

FC Goa was ruthless and Spanish defender Carlos Pena bagged his first-ever goal in Indian Super League with a cleverly taken free-kick. The front-post was left unmarked and Pena pounced on the opportunity to rattle the net as Goa FC thrashed Chennaiyan FC 3-0.
