Fatroda (Goa), Nov 1 (PTI) NorthEast United FC stunned reigning champions FC Goa 2-1 in their final Group B match of the Super Cup here, on Saturday.
Chema Nunez (68th) and Robin Yadav (76th) scored for the Highlanders, while Sahil Tavora (72nd) pulled one back for the hosts.
Goa, who had already booked a semi-final berth, dominated possession but were undone by NorthEast's compact defending and clinical counter-attacks.
The Manolo Marquez-coached side threatened early through Ayush Dev Chhetri and Udanta Singh but failed to find the net.
Nunez broke the deadlock against the run of play, finishing neatly after Alaaeddine Ajaraie's cut-back.
Tavora's rebound levelled the score, but Yadav's well-timed header restored NorthEast's lead, which they held till the end.
