Indian Football Team had qualified for World Cup Once!!! Do you know it??
in General Discussions
Yes friends!! It is true. It happened in 1950. India had qualified for World Cup football. But unfortunately couldn't participate ..reason is shocking!!

Our players didn't have shoes due to financial incapability. FIFA didn't allow them to play bare foot. ..


Friends !! What are your views ?

    This is surprising. Cricket and hockey players had no such problems. Why only the football players faced financial difficulty and could not get even shoes is beyond comprehension. This is pity.

    May be fewer countries used to play in Asia and India dominated Asian soccer in the fifties and even in the sixties.On the basis of our rank in India we might have met the eligibility criteria.
