CONCLUSION
As said by Mr. Sepp Blatter , the FIFA president some days back, India is a sleeping giant in Football. This survey actually shows exactly the same. The game is gaining popularity among the youths and the English Premier league is very much followed by the Indian people.

The people who follow Indian football is low but if u combine with the people who follow Indian football sometimes , the number becomes high and is more than the people who dont follow it.

So , if the grassroots of Indian Football is built properly and given a good foundation and promotion , India can excel in football.

AIFF should look at the possible ways to build the game .

SUGGESTIONS &RECOMMENDATIONS
Cricket is popular because it has big stars, glamour, and money. Efforts can be made to make Football that much popular. Game should be made glamour, aggressive and attractive.

To improve the standard of Indian football more tournaments need to be played in India frequently.

AIFF should build a body for football and setup good administration and the officials should be the past players who are retired. Like the IPL, Football too needs to be given a boost. Players are more over joining cricket instead of Football as cricket is giving more money and fame to individual players. To improve Football in India the sports ministry needs to think seriously.

Football should be promoted well by known personalities and more awareness should be made in public. We know cricket can be played anywhere but Football does require place to be played that is one of a big reason for not being a popular sport here in India.

Need to improve and provide good infrastructure and facility for Football.
