NorthEast and Pune settle for a scoreless draw in Guwahati as the latest trend of draws continues in ISL.
A lot of chances were squandered by the hosts as they failed to find the back of the net due to poor finishing. The same also held true for the visitors but they were kept out by the inspirational keeper by T Rehenesh.
The game's best chance fell to Mtonga of NorthEast who missed from point blank range. Pune came close to leading via David Colomba but Rehenesh was up to the challenge and kept the Seven Sisters in the side. Jermaine Pennant started for Pune but was looking shy of his usual sharpness.
Pune drew their third game on the trot while NorthEast flattered to deceive once again as their young squad impresses but fails to deliver results. Kostas had a drab game as he very well marked by the duo of Koke and Felipe.
