KOLKATA: East Bengal FC recorded their biggest ever Indian Super League (ISL) victory by triumphing 5-0 over NorthEast United FC at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata tonight.

All good things take time, and the Red & Gold Brigade seemed to trust the process being implemented by head coach Carles Cuadrat ever since he took over the reins in the summer.

From a sensational long-range strike by Borja Herrera in the 14th minute to a brilliant brace by Cleiton Silva, the home side were flawless in their build up and clinical in their finishes. Yet, it were the twin strikes by substitute Nandhakumar Sekar that stole the show tonight.

NorthEast United FC, in their next game, will square off against Hyderabad FC in Guwahati on December 10. (Agencies)
