Kalinga Cup campaign: NorthEast United FC (NEUFC) blast past Kerala Blasters

Bhubaneswar: NorthEast United FC (NEUFC) ended their Kalinga Cup campaign on a high as they thrashed Kerala Blasters 4-1 in a Group B match at the Kalinga Stadium Main Pitch, here on Saturday. For NEUFC, Parthib Sundar Gogoi, Mohammed Ali Bemamaer, Redeem Tlang and Jithin MS were the scorers. Diamantakos Dimitrios reduced the margin for Kerala Blasters.

With Jamshedpur FC having already qualified for the semi-finals from this group, the match was inconsequential for both teams. Understandably, then, the ISL sides were playing for bragging rights and NEUFC stamped their authority in the game convincingly.

The win helped NEUFC finish second in their group behind Jamshedpur FC with six points from three matches. Kerala Blasters finished third. IANS
