But this (Futsal) is totally different game, it is a small game (and) you have to be quick, you (also) need to defend and also have to be attacking to score goals at a very small goal post.The standard of play has been really good and there are exciting players and when you watch this players, it is hard to understand why they are (not) playing proper football rather than Futsal.

Yeah, I hope so. It should do it, Indian people like that form (Twenty 20), it is very quick, exciting with fours and sixes all the time. That’s very similar on a Futsal side, it (requires) quick skills and (has) fantastic goals, it is very similar to Twenty20 cricket (and) we all know cricket is popular in India. If we can get football and Futsal sides even close to cricket, there is a chance in years to come that India will produce similarly good footballers.

Paul Scholes also shared his thoughts on how Indian football can shape up and what all measures can be taken to get India on global stage.


It is difficult when cricket is the main sport. It is difficult to introduce another sport, but with the help of ISL, bringing players, hopefully attract more people to the game and if you can start the coaching early it will be a big benefit.
