we ve won it

india have beaten syria.
i could nt watch the match,neither did i watch any of the matches.
all i managed to see was the opening ceremony when the president Pratibha Patil
inaugurated the first match between India and Cambodia.
Priya Ranjan Dasmunshi was jumping like a kid and Sheila Dixit gave the cup.
Its a great moment for Indian football and more should be done to build up the tempo from here.
