HIGHLIGHTS
TALKING POINTS
A touch of class by the Baby Jet Asamoah Gyan helped NEUFC to three points while a valiant Odisha FC slumped to their second defeat.
- A momentary lapse of concentration in the second minute meant Odisha FC were chasing the game right from the beginning.
- Odisha FC matched every step Northeast United took until they were undone by a red card and lack of decisiveness in the final third.
- NEUFC’s experienced custodian Subhashish Roy Chowdhury once again turned up with an excellent performance behind the sticks – the veteran is probably the most under-rated signing of the season.
- Gyan looks at ease in the Indian Super League – his touch and positioning sets him at a crest above the rest.
