Excellent finish poor defending from Australia. Nagatomo assisted the goal. He was the standout for Japan.

Nagatomo is holding Japan's number 10 jersey that belongs to Kagawa who couldn't make it for the final because of injury.

I find it absurd that Al Ain are in an eastern Asian group with FC Seoul/Grampus and Greentown, being south korean/Japanese and Chinese teams respectively.


anyways Al Ain vs Seoul is on now, Seoul just scored.

In the Wake of the India-Pakistan Frenzy, A Look At Whether Cricket Is Responsible for the Condition of Indian Football (Part One)

by Somnath Sengupta

It is said that cricket is a religion in India. Popularity of cricket has completely overshadowed other sports in India. Is it fair to blame cricket for the decline of football in the country?
