In India, a scandal over the reform and restructuring of the championship. As a result, the champion of the first division - Ajjal, was not allowed to perform in the elite division. The reason for this decision was the small budget of the team, according to IE Sports.
The club is ready to defend its rights in official bodies. If this does not succeed, then "the club will have no choice but to organize pickets near FIFA and other offices, as well as launch a mass hunger strike".
It is worth noting that in the big leagues were allowed the persecutors Aijal - Bengalor FC, East Bengal and Mohun Bagan.
"How can the champions be sent to the second division?
" We will not allow this, no chances. We will play in Asian competitions. How is it possible that we played in Asian cups, and when we got home we could not play in the big leagues? ", - the owner of the club Robert Roit is perplexed.
Ayjal has one of the smallest budgets in the first division, which did not prevent the team from winning the championship. In addition, the club was a finalist of the Fed Cup, which allows him to participate in the Asian Champions League next season.
