Watch | Kerala Blasters FC edge out Northeast United FC, seal ISL semis spot

Kerala Blasters FC lived up to the home crowd's expectations as they edged past NorthEast United FC 1-0 and sealed a place in the semi-finals of Hero Indian Super League at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, Kochi, on Sunday. Kerala Blasters needed only a point to qualify for semi-finals while NorthEast United would have gone through at Kerala's expense if they had won all points. But Kerala did not disappoint the massive 53,000-plus home crowd present at the stadium with CK Vineeth scoring the all-important goal in the 66th minute. The win helped Kerala Blasters finish second with 22 points and will now meet third-placed Delhi Dynamos in the two-leg semi-final battle. League toppers Mumbai City FC will face Atletico de Kolkata in the other semi-final. (video and image courtesy: ISL)
