National level football players are present, but need good coaches: Churchill

Intense Football was played between MLA's including Benaulim MLA and GFA chief Churchill Alemao and the Sports Minister Babu Azgaokar on Wednesday in the house. Churchill objected to Azgaonkar's statement that Goa was not producing national level football players in spite of Government spending maximum funds on football. Churchill back passed, bye passing the issue, and blaming football clubs.

The football wave hit the Assembly on Wednesday. The house saw heated discussions over the present football situation and quality in the State. Members question why despite having the infrastructure, quality of players left much to be desired. On the sidelines there was a bit of needle between the sports Minister and St Andre MLA.
