The victory was sweet, but let's be honest, the ticketing and crowd management at some venues could have been better. Hope they learn for the next mega event.

Infantino calling Jay Shah his "friend" is interesting diplomacy. Sports bodies working together is good for all athletes. And of course, CHAK DE INDIA! 🎉
