FC Goa player and Donegal native Carl McHugh
Donegal and Lettermacaward native Carl McHugh has finished third in the Indian Super League for the player with the most successful passes.
In addition to making crucial tackles and interceptions, McHugh played a pivotal role in initiating most of FC Goa's attacks.
With the team adhering to their attacking and possession-based football approach, McHugh proved to be an indispensable asset, significantly contributing to his side’s journey to the semi-final after finishing third in the league.
Under Manolo Marquez’s system, McHugh emerged as a core player, registering the highest number of successful passes for the team. His tally of successful passes was only surpassed by Jahouh among midfielders.
Goa defeated Chennaiyin 2-1 in the knockout game to qualify for the last four but couldn’t progress beyond that with Mumbai City winning the overall competition after defeating Mohun Bagan in the final.
While McHugh remains focused for the time being with the Indian club, FC Goa has, since the end of the season, parted way with seven first team players.
