The last time they participated in an Open contest was in 2015 (and they only skipped the Annual contest once, in 2016). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says any Goan up-to 3rd generation from a parent born before 1951 is eligible to be a Portuguese citizen. Even the Portuguese PM is of Goan Origin.

Haan that's true but there was a good live stream on the free to air channel, along with free entries for football match except semis and finals, along with free livstream online.

Yes, but that is also because of many goans who ran away many years ago to portuguese colonies, and then to Portugal (after independence from colonies), I had a few friends with stories like that. still it’s interesting how the language resisted in India after so many years Fly_like_a_don 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t find those anywhere. The 2014 South Asian Games do have full daily replays available though. Unfortunately they have a much worse website and still no PDF results. “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.
