Local boy CK Vineeth was yet again the hero for Kerala after he scored the all-important goal for the Blasters against NorthEast. The Bengaluru FC man produced a moment of individual brilliance when he scored in the 66^th minute after cutting infield from the left flank and driving a skidded shot past Rehenesh and into the far corner of the NorthEast goal.

The 28-year-old was also lively towards the end of the second half when Kerala created their best chances. He threatened Rehenesh yet again in the 80^th minute with a shot to the near post but the keeper did well to get down and prevent him from grabbing a second goal. Vineeth also contributed defensively in the first half whenever he was forced to track back and help out his full backs.
