#1 The crowd support
After a poor turnout for the first game (2569), the stadium attendance witnessed a surge in the next three games involving Team India. Sunil Chhetri's emotional plea and India's dominating display of football made the fans throng the Mumbai Football Arena to support the Blue Tigers.

It was around 9000 in the next three games- against Kenya (group stage and final) and New Zealand. The fans were vociferous and passionate throughout the tournament. They responded to Chhetri's plea by turning out in large numbers and in turn, the Team India gifted them with a memorable title win.
The tournament was keenly followed by the fans and the surge of Indian Football was evident. Hope this is just the beginning of something special for the Indian Football. Love you, Mumbai!
