Why India Has Not Come Up In World Football - Part 1

The fact that India has a national football team is also a news for many people in our nation

. Today, while most people are still getting hurt with every loss that India suffers in cricket, there is an increasing population of young-blooded Indians supporting football clubs from all over the Europe. Hence to say that football is less popular than cricket amongst the Indian youngsters would be an over-statement. But you go and ask these kids to play a game of football and they will instinctively ask you back to wait till it rains.

The popularity of football game in India is not in question here, the question is how can India come up in the world football. Many self-acclaimed football gurus will kill this question saying that Indians lack the talent and strength needed for the game, but what they forget is that we, as a second largest populated country has never failed to produce talent in any field. The one thing that India lacks is the dedication to bring the change.

The Indian national team is not only as talented as other teams but also dedicated. What it lacks is the exposure. Football is the most popular game around the globe, hence the competition that comes with it is equally high. Most countries who play at the ultimate football event, strive it for years to reach that level.

When you play at a national level no one doubts your skills, but in a team game like football individual skills are of no use. The players should practice and play together and develop an understanding between themselves. The critical part is to develop a similar style of play in all the players. The Indian domestic football league (ongc i-league) also is not doing any good to the national team. The national players, all of them, play for different clubs in the domestic league in India itself. These clubs are coached by managers from different countries and hence do not inculcate a similar style of play. Please read further in part 2 of this article.
