David Succi's wonder strike early in the second half gave Marco Materazzi's men the vital three points in front of 32844 fans.
Chennaiyin FC broke their Guwahati jinks with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over NorthEast United FC in an absorbing Hero Indian Super League clash at Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium, Guwahati, on Thursday. Chennaiyin FC were the only team to neither score a goal in Guwahati nor secure a point at Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium during the previous seasons of the ISL. Chennaiyin FC had also never defeated NorthEast United in four attempts, losing three of them. The defending champions, however, made everyone sit up and take notice with just one magical moment. It was provided by Davide Succi whose 49th minute winner was the difference between the two sides. The win helped Chennaiyin FC jump to third place on the points table with seven points from four matches. Despite the loss today, NorthEast United are still perched at the top of the table however the gap could be narrowed now if Mumbai City FC, Delhi Dynamos and Atletico de Kolkata win their next round match.BOOM!!
