New Delhi: Making India a footballing nation was one of the major agendas discussed in depth during Day 2 of the News9 Global Summit in Stuttgart. Walking into its second day, the event saw several exciting sessions unfolding in the German city on Friday. At the three-day event, sports has been earmarked as one of the major aspects of Indo-German collaboration alongside culture, economy, technology, business, and others. During the session, ‘ India as a Footballing Nation: A German Template’ , the beautiful game was discussed with respect to its low prominence in India and the steps to change its status. Germany has notably been active in the promotion and development of football and has also taken several initiatives to spot, scout, and nurture fresh talent, making them professional stars. Even Bundesliga partnered with the TV9 Network to pledge commitment to nurturing the Indian football ecosystem. Sudeva Delhi FC’s co-founder Anuj Gupta was one of the four panelists called upon the stage during the interactive session as he shed light on increasing the level of football in India. “We need a poster boy. If we can produce top players from India, that can inspire millions of grassroots players to get into the sport and not look at the performance of the national team but rather look at youth development,” Anuj said. He was also of the opinion that for any sport to excel, one needs role models, which isn’t the case in India. Anuj also laid emphasis on “patience” which India require to climb up in football. “We need more time and need to be patient to take India to a greater level in football. Hopefully we will produce first professional player very soon and he may play for VfB Stuttgart in the future,” Anuj added. “In a nutshell, I believe we need to produce one player who plays at the top level in Europe,” says Anuj Gupta, Co-Founder, Sudeva Delhi FC #News9GlobalSummit #News9GlobalSummitGermany #TV9Network #IndiaGermany @bhardwajmeha pic.twitter.com/bHHwhoa7NV — News9 (@News9Tweets) November 22, 2024 What India actually need to become a footballing nation? Also speaking at the session was the Chief Marketing & Sales Officer of VfB Stuttgart, Rouven Kasper, who was straight up asked about the biggest things India need to become a footballing nation. Rouven had a very intellectual answer to this as he said, “India need two things to become a footballing nation – need to believe that they can develop football and they need good people.” “India need two things to become footballing nation – believe that they can develop football and they need good people,” says Rouven Kasper, Chief Marketing & Sales Officer, VfB Stuttgart #News9GlobalSummit #News9GlobalSummitGermany #TV9Network #IndiaGermany @bhardwajmeha pic.twitter.com/wg6WnrrvnQ — News9 (@News9Tweets) November 22, 2024 Rouven added that the nation need to believe in one “good collaboration” and the “right concept” and a “sustainable way”. “Summarise it (collab), figure out if it is successful or not and find the right people (to excel in football). When there are right people together in one boat and if found the right people for building football, it can flourish heavily,” Rouven said during the session. Also among the panelists were Kay Dammholz, Director of Media Rights at DFB, and Peer Naubert, the CMO of Bundesliga who too talked in detail about building India’s football ecosystem and what can the nation take away as lessons from Germany to build football from the grassroots level.

It looked like a recipe for disaster. So, when his country's swimmers were being accused of doping earlier this year, one Chinese official cooked up something fast. He blamed it on contaminated noodles. In fact, he argued, it could have been a culinary conspiracy concocted by criminals, whose actions led to the cooking wine used to prepare the noodles being laced with a banned heart drug that found its way into an athlete's system. This theory was spelled out to international anti-doping officials during a meeting and, after weeks of wrangling, finally made it into the thousands of pages of data handed over to the lawyer who investigated the case involving 23 Chinese swimmers who had tested positive for that same drug. The attorney, appointed by the World Anti-Doping Agency, refused to consider that scenario as he sifted through the evidence. In spelling out his reasoning, lawyer Eric Cottier paid heed to the half-baked nature of the theory. "The Investigator considers this scenario, which he has described in the conditional tense, to be possible, no less, no more," Cottier wrote. Even without the contaminated-noodles theory, Cottier found problems with the way WADA and the Chinese handled the case but ultimately determined WADA had acted reasonably in not appealing China's conclusion that its athletes had been inadvertently contaminated. Critics of the way the China case was handled can't help but wonder if a wider exploration of the noodle theory, details of which were discovered by The Associated Press via notes and emails from after the meeting where it was delivered, might have lent a different flavor to Cottier's conclusions. "There are more story twists to the ways the Chinese explain the TMZ case than a James Bond movie," said Rob Koehler, the director general of the advocacy group Global Athlete. "And all of it is complete fiction." Something in the kitchen was contaminated In April, reporting from the New York Times and the German broadcaster ARD revealed that the 23 Chinese swimmers had tested positive for the banned heart medication trimetazidine, also known as TMZ. China's anti-doping agency determined the athletes had been contaminated, and so, did not sanction them. WADA accepted that explanation, did not press the case further, and China was never made to deliver a public notice about the "no-fault findings," as is often seen in similar cases. The stock explanation for the contamination was that traces of TMZ were found in the kitchen of a hotel where the swimmers were staying. In his 58-page report, Cottier relayed some suspicions about the feasibility of that chain of events — noting that WADA's chief scientist "saw no other solution than to accept it, even if he continued to have doubts about the reality of contamination as described by the Chinese authorities." But without evidence to support pursuing the case, and with the chance of winning an appeal at almost nil, Cottier determined WADA's "decision not to appeal appears indisputably reasonable." But how did the drugs get into the kitchen? A mystery remained: How did those traces of TMZ get into the kitchen? Shortly after the doping positives were revealed, the Institute of National Anti-Doping Organizations held a meeting on April 30 where it heard from the leader of China's agency, Li Zhiquan. Li's presentation was mostly filled with the same talking points that have been delivered throughout the saga — that the positive tests resulted from contamination from the kitchen. But he expanded on one way the kitchen might have become contaminated, harkening to another case in China involving a low-level TMZ positive. A pharmaceutical factory, he explained, had used industrial alcohol in the distillation process for producing TMZ. The industrial alcohol laced with the drug "then entered the market through illegal channels," he said. The alcohol "was re-used by the perpetrators to process and produce cooking wine, which is an important seasoning used locally to make beef noodles," Li said. "The contaminated beef noodles were consumed by that athlete, resulting in an extremely low concentration of TMZ in the positive sample. "The wrongdoers involved have been brought to justice." New information sent to WADA ... eventually This new information raised eyebrows among the anti-doping leaders listening to Li's report. So much so that over the next month, several emails ensued to make sure the details about the noodles and wine made their way to WADA lawyers, who could then pass it onto Cottier. Eventually, Li did pass on the information to WADA general counsel Ross Wenzel and, just to be sure, one of the anti-doping leaders forwarded it, as well, according to the emails seen by the AP. All this came with Li's request that the noodles story be kept confidential. Turns out, it made it into Cottier's report, though he took the information with a grain of salt. "Indeed, giving it more attention would have required it to be documented, then scientifically verified and validated," he wrote. Neither Wenzel nor officials at the Chinese anti-doping agency returned messages from AP asking about the noodles conspiracy and the other athlete who Li suggested had been contaminated by them. Meanwhile, 11 of the swimmers who originally tested positive competed at the Paris Games earlier this year in a meet held under the cloud of the Chinese doping case. Though WADA considers the case closed, Koehler and others point to situations like this as one of many reasons that an investigation by someone other than Cottier, who was hired by WADA, is still needed. "It gives the appearance that people are just making things up as they go along on this, and hoping the story just goes away," Koehler said. "Which clearly it has not."SEC Threatens Elon Musk with Charges
