Welcome to Sportstar's live blog covering the Indian Super League fixture between NorthEast United and East Bengal.
NEUFC tries to play out from the back and Cleiton Silva capitalises on a mistake and it is the first GOAALL!!!! Jithin MS down the left is the first to test the EB defense. The Highlanders pressing hard and strong to put the Kolkata side under pressure. Suhair loses possession and NEUFC built out from the back.. First real chance of the day and it is EB with it. The balance of the game has shifted as EB begins to be more assertive. NEUFC is mounting on the pressure as it looks to get back into the game. Slightly off target, but it shows the level of confidence he is operating in. EB sets off on a counter attack, but Suhairโs cross from the right was disappointing. A few chances from setpieces and EB somehow survives the onslaught. Constantine has been the experience to see it out and his tactics is in line with grinding out a result right now. NEUFC needs to tighten up if it is to come back into this game.
