Not exciting but a much anticipated exit of India from the AFC Asian Cup.
India 0-4 Australia
India 2-5 Bahrain
India 1-4 South Korea
There were no hopes from the Indian side after placed in a group of death with teams like Australia,South Korea and Bahrain;the first two being the title favourites.
I like the optimism showed by Indian Coach Bob Houghton. Click the link below to see what he said.
"Indian Boys have done creditably well"
I would say this is the kind of exposure Indian football should get by playing with competitive teams like the ones in the AFC Asian Cup. India has a long way to go but this is the start of the journy and I hope the day is not too far when we will see India playing in the FIFA Football World Cup and I don't need to Support Spain or Germany ;-).. Go Men in Blue...!!
