Whatever happened on the Pitch will be looked upon by Match Referee. But the incidents in Stands are responsibility of local organisers. Away fans have equal right to enjoy football match as Home fans. Normally police keeps an eye on away supporters and potential trouble between rival supporters. Calcutta police is vastly experienced in dealing with it, that's why this has come as a surprise. AIFF should be careful about this type of incidents, we don't want venue getting banned or penalised in future.
Nature and type of support which Ind8an National Team is getting over last few years has changed dramatically. Younger and passionate
Hopefully organisers will recognise this. Ticket fiasco should not happen in future. Crowd should be treated better
I loved that comment! It burnt a lot of people lol. Everybody is an armchair critic. Some people watch EPL and expect our players to play like that
Yes, we defeated Japan in last game.lol. under Stimacs reign which proper footballing nation have we defeated who are ranked above India? In order to win against Afghanistan we took 3 matches in different qualifiers. Some people watch epl and some people have seen our Indian teams winning by 4/5 goals against them earlier. So yeah it burns a few heart when the coach feels as if we have qualified for world cup while the true fact is we are where we were. Rankings have meant we get an easy group which everyone acknowledged we should be getting 9 points and its a failure if we cannot.

As per this article, some Indian fans and a Police Constable did come to rescue Afghan fans.
It happened when Afghanistan levelled 1-1
-Football legend Stimac!
Absolutely rubbish comment!!
Before this match, no team confirmed their qualification, but after this single match 7 out of 11 qualifications will be confirmed.
