The world’s most populous country is hopeless at the world’s most popular game.

As football fanatics gather for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, in India, the sport has sunk to new lows.

Meanwhile, the country’s top league is in shambles after being left without a sponsor and forced to sell its media rights for a pittance.

Yet, the sport thrives among amateur players.

101 East explores why football in India is struggling to succeed.
