Indian Football team played really well , but final score does not say so . India Lost to Saudi Arabia 3 - 0 in AFC qualifier match played in Kolkota . That's not gud news to us. India Lost 'again'. But , whoever saw that match could feel the defnite improvement in Team India's performance.
India Lagged first half by 2 - 0 , but the impressive part was second half. Had Manjeet singh converted more than couple of chances he got into goal , we could have equalised with them . Couple of shots hit the woodwork . one by Baichung Bhutia and another by Sukumar. A regular football follower could have said those were some of the best shots on Goal , which missed by few inches and those who play football regularly would realise how difficult it would be to cover those few inches.
A bit of experience and luck could have got us home safely that day. At the end of the day India Lost , but gave us new hope of improved performance in the near future.
India will play couple of International matches in next 2-3 months, next being against Saudi Arabia on September 6 2006 . one more will be played in our very own Bangalore city on October 11 against Japan . Let's wish the Best for Team India for upcoming matches.
