When FIFA president termed India as the best technical side of Asia

New Delhi: Facing the Japanese side who came to Bangkok at the back of winning the bronze medal at the 1968 Summer Olympics in Mexico City the first-ever Asian country to win an Olympic medal in football was a herculean task for the Indian football team at the sixth Asian Games in 1970. But the 20-men India contingent had something else in their mind. Right from goalkeeper Sampath to forward Amar Bahadur, everyone played the game of their lives to earn the title of “best technical side of Asia” from none other than the-then FIFA President Sir Stanley Rous, as recalled by Subhash Bhowmick, and Shyam Thapa. India rode on an Bahadur strike to beat Japan by a solitary goal to garner the bronze.
