Football News
At AFC Asian Cup 2011, , Doha, Qatar

Group C
India l South Korea 1-4

Goal Scored - Sunil Chhetri (IND) 12' P and Dong Won Ji (KOR) 6' and 23', Ja Cheol Koo (KOR) 9', Heung Min Son (KOR) 81'

Nothing special to write as we again struggled in defence ... Korea were up 2-0 in first 10 mins India scored through penalty due to mistake by defender Tae Hwi Kwak ... Once again Subrata Pal was exceptional under the goal and pulled off numerous brilliant saves in the second half ... Bhaichung Bhutia made his first appearance in the AFC Asian Cup when he replaced Abhishek Yadav in the 78th minute.

So with that Indian campaign from AFC over ... We ended with 3 losses scoring 3 goals and conceding 13 ... Still need lot of work to do for decent showing against these top Asian teams.
