Report About Mumbai Football Arena
The Mumbai Football Arena, located in the Andheri Sports Complex in Mumbai, India, stands as a football stadium with a rich history. Constructed in 1988 and undergoing renovations in 2023, it distinguishes itself as one of the few football-exclusive stadiums in the country. Since 2016, the stadium has been the proud home of Mumbai City FC in the Indian Super League.
Following the installation of bucket seats, the stadium currently accommodates up to 6,600 spectators. Beyond its architectural aspects, the Mumbai Football Arena holds significance in the realm of international football. On September 3, 2016, it hosted a FIFA international friendly where the India national football team triumphed over the Puerto Rico national football team with a score of 4–1, captivating a packed stadium.
Moreover, the arena served as the venue for the 2017 Hero Tri-Nation Series, featuring matches between India, Saint Kitts and Nevis, and Mauritius. In June 2018, the stadium showcased all seven matches of the 2018 Intercontinental Cup. It further solidified its standing by being selected as one of the host venues for the 2022 AFC Women’s Asian Cup.
About Indian Super League (ISL)
The Indian Super League (ISL) is the men’s highest level of the Indian football league system. It was founded on 21 October 2013 with the aim of growing the sport of football in India and increasing its exposure in the country. The league is co-promoted by Reliance, Star India, and supported by the All India Football Federation (AIFF).
The ISL began play in October 2014 with eight teams. During its first three seasons, the competition operated without official recognition from the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), which is the governing body for the sport in Asia. It was structured along the same lines as the Indian Premier League, the country’s premier Twenty20 franchise-based cricket competition. Each season lasted just three months, from October to December, and matches were held daily.
However, before the 2017–18 season, the league expanded to ten teams, extended its schedule to six months, and earned recognition from the AFC. The season runs from September to March and includes a 22-round regular season followed by playoffs involving the top six teams, culminating with the ISL Final to determine the champions. At the end of the regular season, the team with the most points is declared the premiers and presented with the League Winners’ Shield.
Currently, the league comprises 12 clubs. ISL clubs gain qualification to the Asian continental club competitions; regular-season premiers qualify directly for the subsequent season’s AFC Cup group stage. The league has received unmatched visibility in a short span of time and is speculated to be one of the top-tier leagues in India after the I-League.
