A late equaliser by Panagiotis Triadis (90') against Jamshedpur helped NorthEast United maintain their unbeaten start to the season at the JRD Tata Sports Complex on Monday. Sergio Castel (28’) had put his team ahead with his fifth goal of the season before late drama helped the visitors clinch a point.
The battle for the top of the table started with Jamshedpur dominating proceedings in the opening moments. Farukh Choudhary was heavily involved in the attack and produced several nervy moments for the NorthEast defence.
The first big moment of the game arrived in the 6th minute when Noe Acosta managed to tace to the by-line and whip in a dangerous cross into the NorthEast box.
