NorthEast United FC's new signing, Panagiotis Triadis, had an impressive debut and won over the Highlanders faithful with his skills and pace down the flanks.

The youngster created more than a few problems for the Chennaiyin FC defence and was dangerous down the left side for Northeast United FC. The way he regained possession of the ball was something that caught everyone's eye.

Chennaiyin's new signing Halicharan Narzary and C.K Vineeth didn't have a debut to remember as they failed to produce anything meaningful.

Vineeth, in particular, looked tired during the second half and was rightly substituted. Halicharan needs more time to gell with his new teammates as they appeared to be out of sync during the course of the game.

Chennaiyin FC had high hopes from Vineeth and Narzary but it seems they have to wait for a while till both the former Kerala Blasters FC players find their feet with their new team.

The Highlanders will hope that Triadis builds on his impressive debut and help the team in the remaining five games to get the desired results.
