So that is it from this game. ATK FC move to the top of the table with this win. NorthEast United's unbeaten run of the season comes to an end. ISL action continues on Sunday, 8th December as Hyderabad FC take on FC Goa. That game begins at 1930 IST. Join us for that one. Till then, cheers!
Awards
The Club Award goes to ATK FC for winning the game. Roy Krishna is given the Limitless Player of the Match Award. Prabir Das gets the Winning Pass of the Match Award. Lalthathanga Khawlhring takes the ISL Emerging Player of the Match Award while David Williams collects the Hero of the Match Award.
ATK FC go top!
What a performance this was from the two-time ISL champions. They have rolled over the Highlanders and cemented their reputation as the team to beat this season in the ISL. The ball was set rolling in the first half itself as strike partners David Williams and Roy Krishna both scored. In the 53rd minute, Krishna missed an open goal to extend the lead but it did not come back to haunt them.Williams also squandered a chance in the 78th minute. It could have been easily 4 or 5 goals for ATK FC as Javier Hernandez also missed a one-on-one opportunity in the 90th minute. However, Roy Krishna scored in stoppage time to complete the thrashing of the home team and move ATK FC to the top of the table above defending champions Bengaluru FC.

GOAAAALLLLLL
Roy Krishna gets another one and it is ATK FC 3-0 NorthEast United FC. With the hosts commiting forward, it was always about to happen. Jobby Justin gets a ball in the midfield and puts in a through ball for Roy Krishna. Wayne Vaz tries to come forward and play Roy Krishna off but he fails to do so. Krishna takes his time, fakes a shot and slots the ball into the far corner. 3-0 to ATK.

Another let-off
A three-on-one situation this time for ATK FC but they still fail to score. David Williams rolls the ball towards the centre but just behind Roy Krishna.

78'
What a save!
Subhasish Roy has kept his side still in the game. Roy Krishna gets the ball on the right flank. He runs with it and then whips it in to find David Williams on the centre of the box. Williams takes a touch and takes out a defender. He then tries to slot it on the left corner but Subhasish Roy dives and gets down on that side to put it out for a corner.
77'
Free kick
Panagiotis Triadis takes the free kick from just outside the box but it goes straight into the wall. The ball goes towards the left again where Panagiotis Triadis chases it but the ball goes out for a goal kick.

Huge chance missed
Nikhil Kadam, the substitute had the chance to put his team back into contention but he has squandered it. Lalthathanga Khawlhring puts in a wonderful pin-point cross from the right wing towards the head of Nikhil Kadam. He jumps a touch early and mistimes his header over the bar. What a chance missed by Kadam to bring his side back into the game.

NorthEast United FC enjoying the position
The home team are putting in a lot of passes and are spending more time in ATK FC's half. They are unable to find that dinal ball that would trouble the away side's backline.
63'
Headed out of danger
Panagiotis Triadis takes the free kick but Agustin Iniguez heads it out of danger. There is a scramble in the box later on but ATK FC come out of it unscathed.
62'
Free kick in a dangerous position
Maximiliano Barreiro tries to take on Sehnaj Singh but Sehnaj takes him down. Chance for NorthEast United FC to pull one back with a good ball inside the box.
53'
How did Krishna miss that?
ATK FC should have been 3-0 up but somehow Roy Krishna has done the unthinkable and scuffed away his shot. David Williams gets the ball on the right. He charges away with it and there is only Wayne Vaz in between him and Roy Krishna. Williams manages to cross it inside the box and finds Krishna who is one-on-one with the keeper. Roy Krishna who has been excellent this season somehow manages to hit his shot off target.
50'
Foul
That is painful! Panagiotis Triadis tries to win an aerial ball by raising his foot. Agustin Iniguez comes in to head it but Triadis ends up catching his face with his stud. That's got to sting. Panagiotis Triadis has been booked for that as well.

Second half!
The home side get us underway for this one. They'd be desperate to get the second half to a flier.
ATK FC flying high!
It has been some super football from ATK FC as they have piled on the pressure on the hosts. NorthEast United FC were given an early blow when their lead striker Asamoah Gyan went off injured after he himself missed a huge opportunity to put the hosts into the lead. Right after the substitution, David Williams headed ATK FC in front as NorthEast United FC switched off. Roy Krishna had a chance to extend that lead in the 23rd minute but instead of passing to his teammates he opted to shoot and it was well blocked by Subhasish Roy. At the 35th minute mark, Roy Krishna scored and put ATK FC in a comfortable position. The visitors almost added another one but Javier Hernandez's shot went just wide around the 37th minute mark. It looks like the game is done and dusted but don't count the Highlanders out just yet!
45'
Half time
The referee blows the whistle and after 45 minutes, it stands at NorthEast United FC 0-2 ATK FC.

Added time
2 minutes have been added on as stoppage time.
37'
So close!
ATK FC almost scored the 3rd goal of the evening. David Williams puts a through ball down the left side. It falls right in front of Javier Hernandez who hits it with power all along the ground but misses the far pole by a whisker.
35'
GOOAALLLLLL
Roy Krishna scores and ATK FC now double their lead. NorthEast United FC are hit on the counter as they left themselves completely exposed at the back. David Williams puts in a through ball down the middle with just Wayne Vaz with Roy Krishna. Vaz chases Roy Krishna inside the box but Krishna cuts in and completely beats him. With just the goalkeeper in front of him, Roy slides the ball into the back of the net. Looks very difficult for NorthEast United FC to make the comeback now.

Held on!
Maximiliano Barreiro runs down the right flank and whips in a strong cross towards the middle. Agustin Iniguez there rises high and heads the ball in the air. Arindam Bhattacharja comes out and collects it.
31'
Foul
Edu Garcia fouls Martin Chaves in the ATK FC half. Panagiotis Triadis floats in towards the box and the defender heads it out after some miscommunication with his goalkeeper.
23'
Wrong decision?
Agustin Iniguez puts in a cross towards the right side of the box where Roy Krishna collects it. He runs towards goal with no defender marking him. He goes for the shot from a very narrow angle and Subhasish Roy does well to save that one. Maybe ATK FC had a better chance of scoring if Roy Krishna would have squared it for his teammates.
20'
Settling down
After a frantic first 20 minutes, it looks like both these teams have composed themselves a bit. Sustained spells of possession now for both sides.
15'
Foul
Rakesh Pradhan brings down Prabir Das way outside the box. The resulting free kick is taken by Javier Hernandez but it goes straight into the hands of Subhasish Roy. Free kick wasted.
11'
GOOOAALLLLLL
ATK FC strike first and have gone into the lead. Edu Garcia floats in a ball towards the right flank where Prabir Das makes the run. The ball is just about to go about of play but Das does well to put in a first time cross towards the far pole. David Williams there heads it back towards goal and the defender on the line cannot clear it away. The ball goes off him into the roof of the net and the visitors are into the lead. A blistering start for ATK FC.

Injury?
It looks like a big big blow as Asamoah Gyan has gone down. It looks like a hamstring injury and he has sat down on the floor.
7'
Off target
This time ATK FC attack. David Williams runs down the right flank and whips in a cross towards Roy Krishna. He gets down and tries to turn his header towards goal but he heads it wide. Goal kick awarded.
4'
Huge chance
How has Gyan missed that? It was a wonderful opportunity to open the scoring early on. Lalthathanga Khawlhring puts in a long ball into the box from the left flank, from almost near the halfway line. It falls exactly in front of Asamoah Gyan, who chests it down with a very good touch, but he scuffs his shot from just 6 yards out and the ball rolls harmlessly into the hands of Arindam Bhattacharja.

Free kick
Javier Hernandez takes the free kick and floats the ball inside the box but it is well cleared by the NorthEast United FC defenders. The hosts look to counter but are stopped in their stride by Edu Garcia as he fouls him near the halfway line.

Can ATK go top?
It is time for match no. 33 of the Indian Super League and today, ATK will be visiting NorthEast United FC. The Highlanders are unbeaten so far this season and will be looking to extend that run today against two-time champions, ATK. The hosts' season so far has been based on solid defensive displays, letting in just 6 goals in as many matches. Redeem Tlang and Jose Leudo have stood out in defence along with goalkeeper Subhasish Roy. Panagiotis Triadis and Martin Chaves will be the ones to create the chances and with Asamoah Gyan finding the net in each of the Highlanders’ three home matches this season, ATK will have to be on their toes. Coming to ATK, they have been scintillating since their opening day defeat against Kerala Blasters FC. Taking 11 points out of a possible 15, they have propelled themselves to 2nd spot and can go top if they win today. Michael Soosairaj, David Williams and Roy Krishna have been very good up top with Pritam Kotal and Agustin Iniguez being rock solid at the back. However, in the build-up to this game, ATK coach Antonio Lopez Habas has stated that the team has done well but he needs more from his players. It promises to be a fascinating contest with both teams expected to go for all 3 points.
