A 25 Crore freek kick at that.
The BCCI has decided to help out its impoverished cousin, AIFF, with 25 crore from its coffers.
The goal? Is to find a few goals in the 2011 Asian games.
If poverty has been the constraint, then with this,we have started moving towards providing the foodballers with some pizzas instead of vada-pavs.
It remains to be seen whether they will find their goals or if the 25 Cr will vanish in to their own goal post.

"With little funds coming from corporate houses for the 'Goal 2011 Project', AIFF acting president Praful Patel was seeking help of his party chief Sharad Pawar to get financial assistance."

And who says that sportsmen should head sports bodies?
Iam all for the ministers heading them.
