All India Football Federation: After India’s 0-1 loss to Hong Kong in the AFC Asian Cup 2027 Qualifiers, former India captain Bhaichung Bhutia strongly criticised the All India Football Federation (AIFF) for reportedly offering players a USD 50,000 bonus had they won the game.
Following a goalless draw against Bangladesh in their opening match, India desperately needed a win to stay in contention. However, their hopes were dashed by a stoppage-time penalty, leading to another disappointing result.
In an exclusive interview with IANS, Bhutia called for AIFF president Kalyan Chaubey to step down “to save Indian football” and questioned the logic behind such ad-hoc financial incentives.
