ISL 2024-25: Ajaraie Makes History As NorthEast United, Bengaluru FC Split Points
The NorthEast United FC: NorthEast United FC held Bengaluru FC to an enthralling 2-2 draw at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium in Bengaluru in the Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 season tonight. Despite the quick start, the Highlanders had to return home with a solitary point from the match.
Alaaeddine Ajaraie netted twice in the first quarter, becoming the fastest player to reach the mark of 10 goals in the ISL (in eight matches). Alberto Noguera pulled one back for Bengaluru FC in between. Later, substitute Ryan Williams came up with the equaliser to split points between the two teams.
Both teams settled into the game quickly and gradually exerted their authority in midfield. But the visitors struck first blow in the eighth minute when Ajaraie handed the Highlanders an early lead from a counter-attack. The Moroccan caught the Bengaluru FC defenders off guard as he latched onto Dinesh Singh’s superb long ball. He was through on goal and showed no signs of nerves in slotting the ball past Gurpreet Singh Sandhu in goal.
