NorthEast United FC win a late thriller
What a game of football we have witnessed! We expected a firecracker and we witnessed one. NorthEast United FC went into the half time with a goal's lead courtesy Redeem Tlang but had also lost their talisman Bartholomew Ogbeche and Rowllin Borges. The away side started the second half on an attacking note and got what they deserved in the 82nd minute when Xisco Hernandez slotted home with a sliding finish in the 82nd minute. It looked like we will finish the first leg of the first semi-final all squared but there was drama right at the very end. Harmanjot Khabra pulled Juan Mascia in the box, around the end of the game. The referee spotted it and Juan Mascia slotted home from the spot kick to give NorthEast United FC a last gasp winner. That was the final play of the game and the Highlanders with that not only won their first game against the Blues but also enter the second leg with a goal's advantage. Bengaluru FC though do not go empty-handed. They have an away goal which can be the difference maker in this tie.

The home fans are absolutely shocked and are completely muted.

NorthEast United FC with the lead
What a great half of football we have had here in Guwahati. NorthEast United FC started on an attacking note and they rightfully established their lead in the game on the 20th minute, courtesy a beautiful curler from Redeem Tlang. Bengaluru FC responded strongly after that. When a loose ball was attacked by Dimas Delgado from the edge of the box. That was the only real threat possessed by the away side. The biggest blow for the hosts came on the brink of the end of first half when their skipper and highest scorer of this season Bartholomew Ogbeche had to come out with an injury. NorthEast United FC will now have to make do without him and will need to hold onto their lead. Bengaluru FC meanwhile will need to improve thier showing especially in the middle of the park and final third if they want to take something with them for the second leg. Second half begins in a while. Join us for that.

Match Day!
Jules Verne once quoted, 'put two ships in the open sea, without wind or tide, and, at last, they will come together'. And so we meet again after a short break, in this year's Indian Super League, for the semi-final stage. Tonight, NorthEast United FC will host Bengaluru FC in their first ever semi-final in ISL. The hosts are unbeaten from their last four matches in the league but they have won just one from those. Albeit, they will be looking to win this one and head into the second leg with some sort of an advantage. The visitors, on the other hand, started losing momentum at the wrong time. They have lost 3 matches off the last 5 matches. But one thing will surely keep their hopes high is their unbeaten record against the hosts. Will they extend their record or will the hosts can make use of home conditions?
