AnswerActually the battle of Goliad was won by the Mexican forces under General Urrea who, obeying the orders of Gen. Santa Anna, captured the Texian forces commanded by Col. James Fannin after fleeing the fortress. Fannin had surrendered,assuming he and his forces would be treated as prisoners of war but he and his forces were slaughtered shortly after surrendering.

Fannin's surrender at Goliad in March 1836 was significant because it marked a pivotal moment in the Texas Revolution, leading to the Goliad Massacre, where Fannin and his men were executed by Mexican forces. This event galvanized Texan resistance and fueled anti-Mexican sentiment, contributing to a rallying cry for independence. It highlighted the brutality of the conflict and reinforced the resolve of Texan fighters, ultimately culminating in their victory at San Jacinto. The surrender and subsequent massacre also underscored the high human cost of the struggle for independence.
