Why can't India 🇮🇳 qualify for the World Cup while Croatia 🇭🇷dominates football?

[@syedajahira7686]

The reason is accurate, and as a Indian I can definitely say that the growing youth prefers football more than any other sport and since football is getting the government recognition as well so in the near future there is a huge chance of football being one of the most important sports in India.

As an Indian all I can say is that 90% of Indian population doesn't care about football. Rest of the 10% are scattered throughout the country. So basically when the national team plays matches in India nobody is actually traveling to watch them play. That's why Indian matches happen in one or two states only. There are only one or two state governments who are actually prioritising football,rest are stuck with Cricket. I wouldn't blame them because Cricket is a multi billion dollar business in India.So sticking to cricket comes with lot of financial advantages. Whereas football struggles to even find sponcers and training facilities.
