#5 North East's never-say-die Attitude

Nelo Vingada
Nelo Vingada might be a happy man, even after the loss

The match might have ended in a loss for NorthEast, but from the overall performance of the team, Nelo Vingada might be a happy man. It was their third match in 6 six days and majority in the playing XI played all the games.

But despite this, the team did show a good game, particularly after conceding the goal. Romaric, in the first half had two very powerful attempts at the goal, while Katsumi took a brilliant free kick. In the second half, Alfaro made some stellar runs.

The team just needs to improve on their accuracy of long balls and convert the chances they create. The never-say-die attitude of the team was commendable with particularly Subrata Paul coming out and attacking in the final 30 seconds of the match.
