Football: Goa all set to host Federation Cup
Goa powerhouses and cup holders Dempo, who have warmed up well for the tournament by winning the Police Cup, and their closest rivals in the local league - joint leaders Vasco, sporting Clube De Goa, Salgaocar, Fransa Pax and Churchill Brothers are the state outfits in the running for the honours.
The six Goan outfits are expected to face tough challenge from Kolkata biggies East Bengal and Mohun Bagan, Mumbai's premier club Mahindra United, JCT (Phagwara) and Kerala's State Bank of Travancore. These ten teams, all of whom figured in last year's NFL, would be joined by Mohd Sporting (Kolkata), Air India (Mumbai), Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL, Bangalore) and Punjab Police to make it a veritable feast of football. - Posted by Gasper Crasto, www.goa-world.com

Margao, October 6: The Sports Authority of Goa is pulling out all stops to whip the Nehru stadium in Fatorda here into ship-shape condition for the Federation Cup football tournament to be hosted in this state after a gap of eleven years from October 19.
The 16-team, 12-day tournament, the premier inter-club football tournament in the country apart from the National Football League, would see six Goan teams in action, which is bound to enthuse their supporters in this soccer-mad state.
