2 AIFF meets for Executive Committee From the GS Desk November has been an Eventful month. #Indiatakesover is the new slogan at the moment. Its the start of a Football Revolution in India as FIFA handed the mantle over to India for the 2017 FIFA U-17 World Cup after the U-17 Final in Chile. We kicked-off our preparations with a function in Delhi in which the AFC President Sheikh Salman, our own President Mr. Praful Patel, AFC General Secretary Mr. Windsor John, former India Captains Mr. Chuni Goswami and Bhaichung Bhutia and present Indian National Team Captain Mr. Sunil Chhetri were all present. We look up to the U-17 World Cup as the game changer in India. We also hosted two mega AFC Events in Delhi the AFC Annual Awards and the AFC Medical Conference in which the Sports Medical Fraternity of the World had dropped in. Furthermore, the AIFF Executive Committee was also held in the month and important decisions were taken in the Meeting. On the field, India registered their first victory in the World Cup Qualifiers when a 10-man spirited India played all over to beat Guam one-nil in the match in Bengaluru. The support from the stands was simply majestic and even as it poured like anything, the downpour failed to douse the spirit of the fans and the Players. The SAFF Championship is to kick-off next month and India will be facing a sterner challenge from Afghanistan as we aim to retain the title. Warm regards, Kushal Das President of the All India Football Federation (AIFF) Mr. Praful Patel Chaired AIFF s Executive Committee Meeting at Taj Palace Hotel, New Delhi on November 27, Besides, AIFF General Secretary Mr. Kushal Das, Vice Presidents Mr. Subrata Dutta and Mr. Subhash Chopra and all other Members, except Mr. Shrinivas Dempo, Mr. Larsing Ming, Mr. KMI Mather, Mr. Amit Ranjan Dev, Mr. Sunil Bharadwaj, Mr. Jesiah Villavarayar, Ms. Sara Pilot, and Treasurer ZA Thakur, attended the Meeting. AIFF Technical Director Mr. Scott O Donnell and Indian U-17 National Coach Nicolai Adam were also present as were Bhaichung Bhutia, Advisor AIFF, Mr. Abhishek Yadav, Director, Scouting, AIFF; Mr. Javier Ceppi, Tournament Director, 2017 U-17 World Cup and Mr. Joy Bhattacharyja, Project Director, 2017 U-17 World Cup. Mr. Chirag Tanna represented FSDL in attended the Meeting. Mr. Patel spoke on the significance of the two back to back mega AFC events which are being held in India. It s an honour for us that AFC have chosen India to host the AFC Annual Awards and the 5th AFC Medical Conference, he stated. The AFC Annual Awards are slated to be held on November 29 while the AFC Medical Conference will be held from November 30 to December 2, There was a discussion on the future plan of the National Team wherein all unanimously agreed the Grassroots Programme holds the key for the future. However, the Committee felt that there should be a short term goal for the National Team because unless the National Team puts in a good performance, there s always a negative perception regarding Indian Football. The objective, the Committee felt was to see that that India qualifies for the 2019 Asian Cup in UAE. There was also a presentation made on the second round of scouting for the section of the FIFA U-17 World Cup which was followed by a detailed discussion for getting better Players for the Indian National Team for the U-17 World Cup in Meanwhile, the Committee, as per the suggestions given by the I-league Committee and after consultaion with AFC, decided to hold the Federation Cup on a Home and Away basis for the season 2015/16. The top eight Teams as per the standings after the completion of the League would be participating in the Federation Cup. Mr. Patel also requested FSDL to market and ensure that all the matches are telecast live. In the last Meeting, the Committee had issued a directive to the Haryana Football Association to hold the elections at the earliest (not held since 2007) and to furnish the Constitution immediately. But due to the complete lack of response from the Haryana State FA, the Committee, as per the AIFF Constitution, decided to appoint an Adhoc Committee to enable the Elections to be held within six months. Meanwhile, the AIFF AGM would be held on December 20, 2015 in Goa. 1

3 Start of the Revolution #Indiatakesover All India Football Federation (AIFF) formally flagged off its preparations to host the FIFA U-17 World Cup India 2017 on November 28. This came after FIFA at the closing ceremony of the 16th Under 17 World Cup in Chile had entrusted India with the mantle of hosting the third most important event on the FIFA calendar- FIFA U-17 World Cup India Extending his support, the President of Asian Football Confederation, Shaikh Salman bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa, said: We will continue to provide help and assistance for the successful staging of the FIFA U-17 World Cup.

4 MEGA AFC EVENTS IN DELHI A token of appreciation for AIFF President Mr. Praful Patel from AFC President Shaikh Bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa AIFF President Mr. Praful Patel during the AFC Annual Awards held for the first time in India 3

5 Ten-man India too hot for Guam The skies opened up for the first time in the day an hour prior to the kick-off. And it rained almost all throughout. On the field, it was 10 vs 11. And 10 won! A 10-man India proved too hot for Guam as India registed a solitary goal victory to notch up their first win in the Russia 2018 World Cup Preliminary Joint Qualification Round 2 match at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium in Bengaluru on November 12. A Robin Singh goal in the 10th minute followed up by some planned execution in the midfield and defence proved enough. And as India headed to the interval leading onenil with a man down after Sehnaj Singh was red carded in the 43rd minute, the challenge was huge enough. The Goal came as early as the 10th minute. One of Gurpreet Singh Sandhu s long shots found Chhetri on the left flank. Chhetri gathered it, evaded his marker and set it up for Robin. But it was Robin s deft turn that opened up the goalmouth and the Big guy smashed it in mind you with his right foot. That apart India earned four corners in the first half in comparison to Guam s two. India had their first shot at the rival goal in the 5th minute. The duo of Romeo and Captain Chhetri found Eugenson Lyngdoh in the clear but the latter s powerful grounder was collected by rival Goalkeeper Douglas Herrick. In the 20th minute, Chhetri laid another for Lyngdoh just outside the box but his shot sailed over. Guam survived another scare in the 24th minute. Chhetri intercepted one of Herrick s clearances and with his speed caught the rival defence napping. But his left-footer deflected for a corner from which both which both Arnab Mondal and Sadesh Jhingan came agonizingly close to tap it in, but failed to get the touch. With everything seemingly going right for India, India suffered a jolt when Sehnaj Singh was flashed the red card in the 43rd minute for a rough tackle. Changing over, Harmanjot Singh Khabra came in for Romeo Fernandes as Coach Constantine opted to add number to the depleted Indian midfield. On the pitch, the Indian Team defended and attacked together. In the 48th minute, Sandesh made a fine interception after reading the opponent s play to thwart a Guam attack. Shortly after, safe hands Sandhu denied Guam with a top-notch acrobatic save. Even lacking a man did not deter the sense of togetherness in the Indian Team. The unity seemed so much so that everyone was defending together as a cohesive unit. 4
