Delhi Dynamos fail to go top of ISL after NorthEast United draw

Updated: May 17, 2023, 03:10 pm

A Simao equaliser for NorthEast United FC prevented Delhi Dynamos FC from climbing to the top of the Indian Super League as the two sides played out a 1-1 draw on Tuesday.

Richard Gadze opened the scoring for Delhi Dynamos at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in the 37th minute, finding the bottom corner with his strike from the edge of the box to net his third league goal of the season.

However, Simao ensured that there would be a share of the spoils for the two sides, scoring from a free kick with his first touch of the game with less than 20 minutes on the clock.

Delhi Dynamos could have moved ahead of FC Pune City at the top of the table with victory, but Simao's equaliser means they remain in second, trailing the league leaders on goal difference.

The draw sees NorthEast United stay stuck in seventh place, but they are now two points above bottom-placed Kerala Blasters.
