India recently came in for a sharp criticism from top FIFA officials because of the slow pace of developmental works carried out. The failure to implement or carry out the allotted works effectively is seen as a major hindrance towards the development of the world’s most beautiful game in the country.

Speaking at the International Football Arena (IFA) round table in Gurgaon earlier this week Thierry Regenass, Director, Member Associations and Development Division, FIFA said, “Due to its potential, India is the only country that FIFA has made specific commitments to support AIFF. But delays in completion of projects undertaken have resulted in slower development of football in India,”
