The Indian Super League made its debut last night in Kolkata, India.
This soccer tournament has been long awaited if you took a poll of soccer enthusiasts all over India.
For years, we Indians have always followed the top leagues in Europe, never having any team from our own soil to pledge our support.
But now, times have changed.
Last night, post the opening, and the first match i.e. between Atletico De Kolkata & Mumbai City FC there were around 50k tweets.
That’s what I call an impact.
Kokata emerged victorious thrashing Mumbai by 3 goals to nil.
Even though I’m a Mumbai supporter, I loved the game.
The fact that I can finally go and enjoy a league game in my city gives me immense pleasure!!
Will surely upload the pics when I do watch a game.
For now, here are some pictures from last night’s opening ceremony and the match.
Enjoy.
