FUTTA will bring new sporting talents. We are best in Cricket but in Football we never make it to the World Cup.

All teams will be without Goal keeper

Few rules have been changed to make the match adventurous. The most interesting thing will be that, there is no goalkeeper in any teams and any player can directly attempt to goal.
