Goals, goals, goals Two promotion-chasing Indian football teams have been suspended for cheating after scoring an incredible 116 goals between them in their final games of the season. Promotion rivals Curtorim Gym and Wilfred Leisure went into the last round of matches level on points, but with Curtorim seven ahead on goal difference. As both teams attempted to out-score the other, Curtorim finished with a 61-1 win over Sangolda Lightning, while Wilfred thumped Dona Paula Sports Club 55-1. When the half-time interval arrived, there was little sign of what was to follow. Wilfred Leisure were a mere 6-0 up, while their challengers were being held to a humble 1-1 draw. But when news filtered through of how the other team was doing, all hell broke loose and the crazy scoring antics began. Both teams were vying for promotion from the second division of Goa's regional league, but after the 'unusual' results, they have been suspended for a year, together with their unworthy opponents Sangolda and Dona Paula. Goa Football Association secretary Savio Messias said, "It is really unfortunate. We have suspended all four teams for one year and have recommended that they should be expelled permanently." Maybe Northern Ireland could arrange a friendly with the defeated sides as a little morale-booster. Even they could manage to bang in a goal or two.
This is true Sunderland had the Indian leagues prolific top scorer on trial a couple of years ago...... he didnt make the grade.
