Brazilian outfit notches up 15-0 win in Subroto Cup

As the entire country reels under the hype of the star studded Indian Super League (ISL), touted as a game changer for Indian football, elsewhere an unknown Brazilian outfit gave a footballing masterclass to a local Manipuri oufit in the ongoing Subroto Cup at Delhi.

Despite an India versus West Indies cricket match going on at the nearby Ferozshah Kotla stadium, the very presence of a Brazilian team in the competition was enough to fill in the crowd at the Dr Ambedkar Stadium.

Colegio Estadul Santo Antonio, a part of the Brazilian club Fluminese, displayed breathtaking football and overwhelmed Sainik School 15-0 in a Group H tie.

Luran Romualdo (four goals), Luan Boages (three goals) and a goal apiece from Jose Ricardo, Matheus De Oliveiro, Yago Taffarel, Dieo Silva, Arthur Fernandes, Eduardo Marcelo and Alex, completed the Manipuri boys' misery and highlighted the gulf that exists between Indian and Brazilian football.
