I've just started playing through FFX HD Remaster on my Vita, and I've been beaten by the Luca Goers, aside from my wounded pride is there any reason I shouldn't just carry on? I know I can beat them if I try a few times, but I don't want to if there isn't a good reason.

The only gameplay difference is that winning awards a strength sphere. Strength spheres can be added to the sphere grid (in place of an empty location), which characters can then activate for +4 strength.
While strength spheres are rare, they are by no means unique, as they can eventually be acquired by killing Juggernaut in the Monster Arena, allowing you to obtain arbitrarily large numbers with enough time investment.
This answer seems pretty brief. Perhaps you could augment it by explaining that while strength spheres are nice, they are not unique at all, and a single strength sphere is unlikely to dramatically change the attack power of a single character.

The strength sphere when used by Tidus makes the first half of the game much easier, especially with fights like the first Seymour battle.

If you win the match against the Goers, he hands his teammates the Crystal Cup, the champions' prize, instead of passing off a regulation blitzball.
Don't feel bad if you find it an insurmountable challenge, though. The Goers all have incredible stats for that point in the game; the prime example is Graav, who has about three times the stats of any of the Aurochs. Don't be surprised if the AI constantly passes him the ball, because he can basically trample your entire team if he feels like it, and the game will use that against you.

Yup only thing is an achievement and a power sphere. I spent 3 days trying to beat them and I'm more angry than I was when I lost.
The ONLY way I won is by holding the ball til half time. The rumor if you hide behind your goal sort of works. It worked for the first half but that damn Graav snatched it once. I was fortunate enough he passed it to a weaker player who tried to shoot from mid field. When Wakka finally came out, by the grace of God I scored one point and hot damn I kept the ball after they fumbled. Almost as if the AI got flustered
I hid behind my goal the rest of the time. 0-1. By the skin of my teeth, all for a dan nab power sphere...and achievement

This is more of a replay of your match than an actual answer. Power/strength spheres were already mentioned. If you are referring to the “Teamwork” trophy, then it is not missable. You can get it later when you unlock playing bliztball later in the story

So long as that sequence of events hasn't been changed since the original release, the only thing that changes if you win is the cutscene that follows when Wakka bids his team farewell. If you win the match against the Goers, he hands his teammates the Crystal Cup, the champions' prize, instead of passing off a regulation blitzball.
Don't feel bad if you find it an insurmountable challenge, though. The Goers all have incredible stats for that point in the game; the prime example is Graav, who has about three times the stats of any of the Aurochs. Don't be surprised if the AI constantly passes him the ball, because he can basically trample your entire team if he feels like it, and the game will use that against you.
