Cristiano de Lima Junior

A moment for Dempo Sports Club's Brazilian striker Cristiano de Lima Junior who died yesterday at the Federation Final at Kanteerva Stadium here, from a collision with the goalkeeper right after scoring for his side. The photo on Deccan's frontpage is wrenching. In a country where any sport other than cricket is grossly under-rewarded and under-reported, Deccan must be mentioned for giving this tragedy cover precedence over the putin visit. The questions needs to be answered by KFA: why wasnt the ambulence equipped with oxygen? and why did it drive to hosmat when mallya was closer? Cristiano had married only 2 months back and had settled in Goa with his wife. Fans protested heatedly against the the rank irresponsibility of the KFA.
