Our Sports Reporter

Guwahati: NorthEast United FC and Kerala Blasters FC played out a goalless draw in the Super League at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium here on Friday.

After a cagey first half, both sides had chances to clinch the game in the second half. However, profligate finishing meant the game finished goalless.

Kerala are now eighth on the table with 15 points while NorthEast United, who have not scored for five games in a row now, are a spot below with 12 points.

The performance of the local outfit is also reflected on the attendance of the game today. The number of spectators was less than a thousand in this game.

The game got off to a sedate start with the ball mired in midfield as both sides struggled to find their rhythm. NorthEast were handed a blow in the middle of the first half when Provat Lakra went off injured and Wayne Vaz had to fill in. Both goalkeepers continued to be untested as the half went by.
