all sports are goofy if you think about it. sweaty men kicking a ball around, sweaty men smacking a ball with a bat, sweaty man lobbing a ball into a net, sweaty man throwing an oval ball to someone in a rectangle.
Too busy being the 3rd richest amount of billionaires in the World unlike your broke bums🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
me when I flex someone elses money!
(saying your country has a lot of billionaires only means that there is inequality or monopolization happening in many different markets idk g, nothing wrong with making money but a lot billionaires let that shit go to their head or get there through scummy practices just saying)
FIFA does this to any country if the government is involved into the affairs of Football Association of that country.
In India cricket is played like football in brazil.
You can find kids playing cricket in every street .
I've never seen a cricket match in my life.
So, basically is you guys national sport?
Umm actually no..Hockey is actually considered to be the National Sport of India(Atleast according to Mr.Google), But factually the number of kids or people playing cricket is more than hockey so it's kinda confusing
Its not like we don't play. Football is developing in India day by day. We have our league called isl ( indian super league )
But no one can deny it's popularity is not even 20% of cricket. You can imagine the craze of cricket by the fact that Virat Kohli has more than 250M followers on insta
Insane, there is a universe of sport that i didn't know, also is insane how this guy has 250M followers.
Its is basically played among asia , Australia, africa and some eu nations.
There was a player with your name on real madrid that i used hate the most😆
India used to play football and hockey until late 70s and 80s. While we were quite good in hockey back then with 8 gold medals in Olympics , football we used to have international friendlies + commonwealth games and Asian games. But everything changed in 1983 when India unexpectedly won cricket World Cup and since then all the money , investments, interest of audience shifted to cricket.
Recently Indian football has won 3 consecutive tournaments, although they are small tournaments but still a large chunk of audience has attracted towards football in past 7-8 months. Our most important run will be world cup qualifiers starting next year January.
We used to be very good in football. We actually used to be called the brasil of asia. but then the rise in popularity of cricket along with mismanagement of the football association, politics and lack of ambition meant lack of development of our football team.
We actually have one of the most fiercest derbies in world football in kolkata that is played between mohun bagan and east bengal (fuck them).
Now we have a people that understand football incharge of the association. Results are promising now. We are rising slowly. Our youth setup is actually pretty decent now.

I Hope Football in índia develops more so we can play against each other again in the future.
