With this victory, NorthEast United now leads the ISL Season 6 point table. Odisha team was more consistent in passing accuracy and possession when compared team to the home team. ODS even had many chances, however, they missed out many opportunities, where Subhasish Roy played a big role in saving a couple of goals.
