NorthEast United played out a goalless draw against Odisha FC in an Indian Super League encounter at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar on Saturday.
Moroccan striker Alaaeddine Ajaraie missed a golden chance to secure victory when his stoppage-time penalty kick struck the woodwork.
The draw halted NorthEast United's winning streak and denied them an opportunity to move three points clear at the top of the league table.
