Four Indians to be FIFA flag bearers

NEW DELHI : Four football-crazy kids — Ajiteshwar Singh (Delhi), Shreshth Shah (Kolkata), Sachit Yadav (Mumbai) and P.S. Sudarshan (Bangalore) — will be part of the FIFA flag bearers at the World Cup in Germany.

ESPN STAR Sports, the official broadcaster of the FIFA World Cup and adidas, which conducted nationwide search spanning 1200 schools, selected the four based on the basis of passion, skill and knowledge of the game amongst the children who registered for the contest.

The four winners will get an all-expenses paid two nights and three days return trip to Germany for watching one match during the FIFA World Cup. — Sports Reporter
