If India were today to play a match against world's mighty Brazil, India would be more than happy to not concede more than three goals. Or perhaps five! A 2-0 loss might feel okay to do. A 1-0 might feel uplifting. A 1-0 'loss', might I! Not a 1-0 win, no: that's impossible! India is ranked 104 in a list of more than 200 football playing nations. Surely, the second most populated and one of the fastest developing countries in the world is capable of way more than that!  It is true to say Indian Football is in a mess. The team is, the management is; so is marketing, investment and political orientation. If any remedial structure isnt considered immediately, the whole system will crumble down to the ground.  Why do I say this?  The Political Instability Well, it's not unheard of that few weeks ago the Indian National Football team was nullified by FIFA, even temporarily so. This was done because (esteemed) FIFA found political disability within the governi...

If you really think about it, being a superhero ain't cakewalk. Of course, there's tensions involved like life risk and a serious doze of responsibility.  But, what's more of a prime concern to begin with is sustainability. Being a superhero, you will need access to ample amount of money and time by yourself, essentially if you are not a mutant or an extraterrestrial being. Your power, henceforth, is born of monetorial essence, that is, gadgetry. And, believe it, when a Supreme level threat lingers upon humankind, it is the wealth and concern of these gadgetry-oriented supes that plays the major part in saving the day. In that category, two big names amongst many others stands out most potently. Marvel's Ironman and DC's Batman are the epitomal archetype of what you would call genius billionaire supes.  As much honored and celebrated these characters are, they still aren't exempt from the infamous DC Marvel rivalry comic book fans know of. Surely, Ir...

To tailor what you might call a 'perfect' curriculum vitae (CV), or rather resume (a more concise version of a CV), there is a lot of hassle involved in the articulation process. And no matter how aesthetically or prolifically you design, it can never meet to be the best for every HR that it meets and is bound to be subject to negotiable remarks for certain aspects of it might feel revolting, while certain so very exaggerating for the recruiter. It is difficult to find an intermediate, or rather what must be said, is that there is no intermediate a stage. But a resume must be made! Therefore, let me allow you to help surf through these considerations and build a prototype for what you might call a nearly perfect resume.  Format : Your resume must look formal. That's it. Formal is the word. It must not look like a scrapbook or an engineering encyclopedia. It must be very strictly maintained that the font is properly readable and the text is aligned with respect t...

After being linked to a number of clubs including the likes of Manchester City and PSG, and with a foreseeable future away from Juventus, the GOAT Cristiano Ronaldo finally joins his former club Manchester United.  Cristiano's first spell with MUFC saw him achieve 118 Goals and 69 Assists in 292 Games and win a total of 10 trophies including the Premiere League thrice. He was the Player of the Tournament twice in the PL. He also managed to bring along one UCL for the most hyped club in England; thereby making it the most successful and decorated club in England.  Now with this gigantically massive signing, Manchester United are certainly looking to win a number of trophies this season. Hope together they can achieve all those important trophies they want (except the Champions League of course; that belongs in Munich 😁)  (This definitely has to be the craziest Transfer Window ever.)  Image Credits: Manchester United, Ch...

"Leaving Barcelona was so hard, but I'm so happy to join Paris Saint-Germain, an ambitious club with a top team."- Leo Messi (source: Champions League)  Crashing economy at FC Barcelona ensures Leo Messi is no longer a one-club man. The move to PSG is perhaps, the best thing that could have happened to him in this uncertainty.  He is now reunited with his best friend Neymarjr. Although it would be unfathomable to watch Leomessi in a non- Barcelona shirt (excluding Argentina, of course) and that too without a number 10 below his name; the entire world can still descry the attacking trio of Messi, Neymar and Mbappe take charge against the strongest defences in Europe.  It would be a bliss if this trio clicks. Hope for the best future possible at PSG.  😢 ➡️ 😀  Image Credits: PSG, Barcelona, Transfermarket  -Written by Dibyendu Maji (aka Kris) on 11.08.21

A ramshackle display of opportunities and decisions saw Indian Cricket team take a hard blow on a  6-day soggy WTC Final 2021 against the well-balanced and deserving Blackcaps. There were displays of great bowling from Shami and Ishant Sharma, an exquisite spin spell from Ash, and even an innings performance from the Indian skipper Virat Kohli and vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane; although, everything kind of just shattered when India took to bat in the second innings. That mindset to win even in that rugged situation was certainly there, I am sure if it, but no one could see it in their game. Tough luck for Team India as we managed to choke in the biggest stage of Test cricket, thereby forfeiting our chance of being crowned the only nation to have conquered the world in all three formats of cricket, in the inaugural edition of the World Test Championship itself. Well, that title would still be up for grabs in 2023, since it's the Blackcaps who have established their dominan...

Well here's something with an anti-lockdown title though!  - Written by Dibyendu Maji, a.k.a., Kris on 21st June, 2021. 

If you ask, what determination and hunger can make do, I'll just show you this match. 2017 witnessed the biggest comeback in the UCL, in the history of Football. Fc Barcelona were down by 4 goals against PSG from the first leg and the quarters were looking too far away. It did so until the 86th minute of this match as well when Barca were up by 3-1 but trailing in the aggregate score by 5-3, until Neymar Jr, the prince of football, showed up and turned the game around completely. The very next minute saw a beautifully taken free kick by Neymar enhance the scoreline for the cules. Just in the nick of the 90th minute, Suarez obtained a penalty for Neymar who scored perfect. Barca had tied the scores but would still lose the spot in the quarters to PSG on account of away goals. It was in the final minute of the extra time when even Ter-Stegen, the Barca goalkeeper had come up to add to the attack. He procured a free kick that was soon taken. That was the last effort Barca ...

A club's legacy is not created in one day, neither is perfectly maintained throughout once established. A club's legacy is created by the sweat and blood of players, the effort of the staff and the emotions of its fans. Today's greatest clubs were once novice, and they built their legacy over time. It is certainly a disgrace to football to mark certain clubs with the tag of eliteness, clubs that possess all as in money to give, and purloin the excitement and thrill of newer beginnings and newer creations of history.  Football is a game of equality. A privileged and elite society of footballing clubs coming together to exclusively play in one tournament deeming it as the centre of the world's best, will be unjust for every other club, player and fan across the globe. The installation of the European Super League will compromise the excitement of football.  Why do I say so?  We have the UCL, the most competitive and the biggest stage in world football for Euro...
