- I’ve continuously stated Football in India is growing exponentially. The standard is improving year on year and it’s a matter of time before Indian players start moving to Europe. I’m meeting the Premier League soon to discuss this very topic #IndianFootballGiven the fan base, the popularity of Premier League and increasing popularity of football in India, it’s exciting to see what opportunities await and see the growth of the game in India. -- Neil Saunders, director of football, Premier League timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/goa/premi…
- Football in India is growing exponentially and to see a packed out stadium 80 minutes prior to kick off is almost unheard of. A great initiative by the authorities. We at Odisha would be delighted to host a fixture @IndianFootball #BackTheBlueOur efforts to take International football to new venues seems to be paying off… Mighty pleased with the football-loving state of Manipur and the picture says it all… packed 80 minutes before first game’s kick-off at Imphal. @IndianFootball

00:00 - The result did not reflect the game & the teams were evenly matched considering we had no lights in the away dressing room until half time; we were given a torch; the warm up was short due to a light failure & only 3 floodlights working all game!Defeat at Mumbai… #OFC
- I totally concur with Sunil & I’ve said this a number of times. We have to start playing teams of a higher standard to raise our own gameSunil Chhetri feels the team needs to play at least one friendly against a top six or seven ranked country from the continent ahead of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup in Qatar next year!
- An impressive and dominant performance by the India U20’s team as they beat Nepal 8-0 in the SAFF Championships. The tournament is being hosted at the Kalinga Stadium home to #OdishaFC
