Former Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan has scored for his new side North East United after failing to do so on his debut.

The 33 year old Ghanaian scored the winner in their Indian Super league home clash against Odisha at the Indira Gandhi Athletic Stadium.

North East United opened the scoring through Redeem Tlang in the second minute of the game but were soon pegged back with an equalizer from Odisha after Spanish International Xisco Hernandez pulled parity for the away side.

Carlos Delgado was sent off for the away side  a minute after the equalizer for a straight red card for a nasty foul.

Asamoah Gyan aside the goal also got himself in the referees book in the first half.

Now the stage was set for a hero to come from the home side and guess who stood up to the  task, It was Ghana Asamoah Gyan who grabbed the much needed winner for his new side in just his second game.
