When we change direct speech into indirect speech, we change the tense in reported speech according to the reporting verb "said". So 'go' is replaced by 'went'.

Dear student
We have fixed the ambiguity of the question.
When we change direct speech into indirect speech ,
present simple tense change into past simple tense.
here; Go is replaced by Went.
For Ex-
Direct speech- She said ,"I work in a hospital".
Indirect speech- She said that she worked in a hospital.
Work is replaced by Worked.
