It was really heart breaking to see Ghana loosing to Urugua in panelty shoot out but the real culprit is Luis Saurez. I think FIFA should come up with more stickt rule if someone man handles a ball when the ball is suppose to go inside the net. That was not an ordinery foul, that was something likem denying Ghana the deserving win. FIFA should ban such player from participating from sports from certain amount of time so that one should think about it before attempting such foul. At last I would say, WELL PLAYED GHANA.. BUT BAD LUCK...

It's just about talent my dear friend. In 1960, India was Asian Champion in Football, and now we are at somewhere round 126 in world rankings.

If India can spend money on the sports infrastructure and seriously develop sport as a viable commercial actitivy like in China or Europe we'll see a rise from the ashes again.
