Just too good - NorthEast United outclassed shambolic Kerala Blasters

In just the second minute of the 2020-21 Indian Super League (ISL) match between NorthEast United and Kerala Blasters, Dylan Fox missed a big chance from close-range off a Luis Machado delivery into the box. Five minutes later, Bakary Kone missed a free header at the other end of the pitch from a corner-kick.

After missing one big chance each in the opening 10 minutes, both sides went in completely different directions for the rest of the 80 minutes. And at the end of the 90 minutes, there was one deserved winner.

The Highlanders, who needed a point to confirm their entry into the playoffs for the second time in the club's history, punished a poor Kerala Blasters team 2-0 and grabbed three points.
