Matchweek 11 of the Indian Super League (ISL) had some great results and historic moments that will live on for a long time. ο»Ώ

For starters, Sunil Chhetri bagged a hattrick in the Southern Derby, scoring three of the four goals Bengaluru scored against Kerala Blasters, becoming the oldest player in the ISL to score a hattrick. 

East Bengal continued its resurgence under their new manager with a 2-0 win away to Chennaiyin FC, who continue to remain winless at the Marina Arena. 

FC Goa have hit top form, winning their fourth game on the trot this season, away to Hyderabad FC. 

Here are the top five goals scored in match week 11 of the ISL:

ο»Ώ#5: Udanta Singh Kumam, FC Goa 

ο»ΏWhile the best goals will always be moments of sheer individual brilliance and magic, there is still room for the classic counter-attacking goals, where the defending team wins the ball and storms forward with pace, and that is exactly how FC Goa's first goal happened against Hyderabad FC.

Mohammad Yasir, who usually plays left wing, switched flanks with Udanta Singh won the ball deep in their half, and raced forward, initiating a counterattack. 

As he cut inside, he spotted Udanta Singh unmarked and made a wonderful 'trivela' pass to him, and Udanta capped off the move with a cheeky near-post finish, giving the Gaurs the lead. 

A classic counter-attacking goal, worth watching over and over again. 

ο»Ώ#4: Liston Das, Mohun Bagan SG

ο»ΏListon Das has made it a habit of scoring wonderful goals, and like the last match, he lights up his team with yet another superb goal. 

Leading 1-0 against NorthEast United, MBSG needed one more goal to ensure the points were in the bag and upstepped Das, weaving in from the left and placing his shot to perfection in the far corner. 

The darting run, the cut inside, the curling finesse shot that bent past the keeper and into the net, everything about the goal was artistic.

ο»Ώ#3: Sunil Chhetri, Bengaluru FC

ο»ΏArguably the greatest Indian footballer of all time, Sunil Chhetri just can't stop scoring this year in the ISL. 

In the Southern Derby, at home, the maverick striker lit up the Kanteerava with a scintillating hattrick, in BFC's 4-2 win over KBFC. 

The first of the three goals was a wonderful header, getting in front of his marker and climbing high before placing the ball into the corner, giving the keeper no chance.

ο»Ώ#2: Jeakson Singh, East Bengal FC

ο»ΏEast Bengal seems to have turned over a new leaf under head coach Oscar Bruzon, recording its second win in as many games. 

After a solid defensive performance in the first half, EBFC was clinical in front of goal in the second, taking the lead against Chennaiyin FC at the Marina Arena. 

Jeakson, on as a sub, picked up a loose ball and rocketed it into the back of the net, letting out a huge roar, as if to announce EBFC's resurgence back to the top!

ο»Ώ#1: Manvir Singh, Mohun Bagan SG

ο»ΏThe goal of mamatch week 1 goes to Manvir Singh, thanks to his incredible individual effort in Mohun Bagan's 2-0 win over NorthEast United FC. 

With the match tied at 0-0 deep into the second half, the Mariners needed a moment of magic to break the deadlock and Manvir Singh provided just that. 

After receiving the ball at the right side, he drifted in, getting free of his man, and then let go of one from 30 yards out, and the ball rocketed into the back of the net, giving his side the all-important lead.

ο»ΏMatchweek 12 promises more action in the ISL, starting with Chennaiyin's home match against Hyderabad FC. 

With the league table taking shape, every match and every goal counts from now on, the stakes are only getting bigger.
