Full Time - NorthEast United FC 0 - 0 Jamshedpur FC
The match ends all square as both the teams will be pretty happy with their performance on the night. NEUFC kept the tempo up throughout with their attacking play and Jamshedpur defended well with Tiri being a huge presence in the box fending off attacks. JFC were down to 10 men in the 77th minute as Bikey got sent off unfortunately in a disputed decision. The teams share a point apiece as Jamshedpur FC make their ISL debut with a hard-earned point on the night.

55' - CLOSE!! Subrata Pal keeps it out as the ball almost sneaked in from a Marcinho corner at his near post. Pal dives and the ball goes out off the post.
52' - Another Sameegh Doutie cross comes in from the right but Adilson clears it off with a acrobatic effort in the box. JFC have looked since the start of the second half...Steve Coppell's pep talk seems to have worked for the new entrants.
49' - Sameegh Doutie receives a good diagonal pass at the right flank and crosses it well but the Highlanders defense is ready and get it away from their box off to safety.
45' - And we're off in the second half with JFC starting the proceedings from right to left as both sides hoping to break the dead-lock here at the IGA Stadium in Guwahati.
The Highlanders have been pretty much running the show here in Guwahati with the newcomers Jamshedpur struggling initially in the half but slowly making their presence felt towards the end even coming close to scoring at the death.

17' - The Highlanders have managed to keep JFC out of the game so far with the newcomers struggle to keep a hold of the ball on the pitch. NEUFC have kept almost 70% of the ball possession in the match with a shot on target to JFC's 0.

The battle in Guwahati will be a treat for the ISL fans as they will witness a new-look Highlanders under new coach Joao De Deus take on the newbies Jamshedpur FC under former Kerala coach Steve Coppell.
League newcomers Jamshedpur FC have played it smart in the ISL draft and brought on arguably two of the most dangerous wingers of ISL 2016. Sameehg Doutie was in fine form last season where he scored five goals and gave 10 assists. On the other side, they have Haitian Kervens Belfort who impressed for Kerala Blasters with his pace and creativity last year. He made 20 key passes, the most by any KBFC midfielder or forward in ISL 2016 and his tally of 28 dribbles was the most by any player last season. To top it off, his side never lost a match in which he scored. Hence, Jamshedpur FC will hope he can get off the bench and on the scoresheet and help his side take all three points.
