World Football Quest

The 2nd most populated and the 7th biggest country in the world, India is one of the most exotic countries in the world, since they have been homeland of many different cultures since the early times of the humanity, unfortunately for them, India has not developed as fast as they did in ancient ages. India has been a british colony until 1947, when the movement of Indian nationalism was successful,under the leadership of their great leader, Mahatma Gandhi. Right now, India is one of those countries where a economical and political power has not been awakened yet, but some clues have been seen lately that maybe this time is not so far.

Although the most popular sport in India is Cricket, football has had little eras when it was popular in India. They have never classified for a World Cup, and their best result in the Asian Cup is the 2nd place in 1964. Right now, the only competition where India has some power is the SAFF Cup, where they have been champions in 6 of 10 editions of this competition. Right now but, football is suffering from a small decadence since the Indians doesn't have many interest in this game, a shame.

The shirt here is the home design from 2008. It came from ebay for 12€ as it had some defects from use. Even with that, the shirt is in good enough condition to use it, and since I really like the colour, sometimes I wear it anyway.
