Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium: FC Goa continued their strong run of form in the Indian Super League (ISL) 2025-26, registering a 2-0 victory against the NorthEast United FC at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium, Guwahati, on Friday.

A first-half strike from Dejan Drazic and a stoppage-time goal from substitute Mohammed Yasir ensured all three points for the Gaurs, who climbed to second place with 19 points from 10 matches. NorthEast United FC, meanwhile, remain in 12th place with seven points. Captain Sandesh Jhingan, who delivered a commanding performance at the back, was named the Player of the Match.

The Highlanders began brightly, with Redeem Tlang testing Hrithik Tiwari early on with a long-range effort that was comfortably saved. Moments later, Brison Fernandes made a lively run down the left but failed to find a teammate inside the box. At the other end, Boris Singh came close twice from distance, but both efforts drifted just wide.
