Atreyo Mukhopadhyay So the most celebrated left-footed player of our times won the World Cup. Lionel Messi is known for using that left leg with telling effect. He did that in the final too, converting two penalties including one in the tie-breaker, conjuring magic and also used his right knee to good effect to net Argentina’s third goal. They are a country of left-footed geniuses we all know. If you ask me, whose was the most valuable left-footed intervention that won Argentina a third World Cup, I would say it was the goalkeeper’s. It was in the dying stages of…

 Scenes from the streets of France, ahead of the big clash!

Would we be waiting for the last chapter in Lionel Messi’s Argentina career with such anticipation if not for a signature scrawled on a restaurant serviette? What is the most expensive autograph in the world? If you go by what auctioneers across the world say, then George Washington’s signatures on the United States of America’s Acts of Congress are worth around $9.8 million dollars. As far as football is concerned, Pele’s autographs fetch around $1,125 each. But if you were ask any modern-day football historian about the most valuable signature in the game’s history, they would mention a name…

Every organisation has a dream. And our dream at RevSportz is to serve and make a difference to Indian sport. To do this you need support. You need like minded individuals who have the same vision and share the same dream. Not necessarily they live in India. They don’t. But they all dream of seeing the tri colour go up. To hear the national anthem play at sports events. They travel the world to see Indian athletes play. They want to do better for Indian sports. See Indian athletes go from strength to strength. These men and women are our…

Some will take great delight in the one-time boy wonder’s fall from grace, but his story is more an indictment of the societies we have created. In our lifetime alone, Roger Federer, Pete Sampras, Novak Djokovic and Bjorn Borg have won more Wimbledon titles. Federer is perhaps the most accomplished all-surface tennis player of all. Djokovic isn’t far behind. Sampras was the most dominant of grass-court champions, while Borg in his prime had few equals – on grass or clay. But with all apologies to that most illustrious quartet and the 27 singles titles they have between them at…

Morocco Eye Another Upset Against France   Having seen off three of Europe’s strongest sides, and drawn with Croatia, Morocco will go into the semifinal against France with no fear. Their Rocky story could have another surprise twist or two. It was George Santayana, the Spanish-American philosopher, who said: “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” In the case of Moroccan football, there was never any danger of the past being forgotten, yet, even they would have been stunned by the manner in which it repeated itself. Having made their World Cup debut in…

Muchacho Messi Makes Time Stand Still   Croatia may complain about the penalty decision that turned the tide, but they ultimately had no answer to the magic of Messi. A year before Lionel Messi was born, Diego Armando Maradona illuminated a World Cup semifinal against European opposition with two wonder goals, one with the outside of that matchless left foot, and the other with the instep. Both acute-angled finishes on the run, with the perfect balance as awe-inspiring as the deftness of touch. Genius, in other words. On December 13 at the Lusail Stadium, against a Croatian…

-Atreyo Mukhopadhyay The younger generation of Indian cricket is coming to the fore. In some style. They are fearless and willing to take the best on. They are fierce, undaunted against the formidable. The Women in Blue chasing that high a target, holding on when the chips were down and finally pulling it off in the super over against Australia was a tale of inspiration. It was out of the blue. Smriti Mandhana is a player you will get once in a generation. The game was getting away from India, by the minute. The pressure was mounting. The chase was…
