Super Cup 2018 : NorthEast United FC vs Gokulam Kerala, 5 Talking Points

#5 Ruthless Gokulam put NEUFC to the sword

NEUFC were not as good as Gokulam Kerala in the final third

For all their dominance in the first half, Gokulam never really managed to get going in the first half. But they were ruthless which ultimately proved to be the difference between both the sides tonight.

Case in point being the glorious chance Highlander's forward Danilo had deep into the second half. The striker found himself in exactly the same position as Henry's opener in the second half. While the later buried his chance, the former fluffed his shot from the same angle.

Like during the ISL, NEUFC were wasteful in the final third while Gokulam took both their opportunities in fine fashion. It was a case of ruthlessness from one end and the absence of a finisher at the other.
