'Neymar might just come to India' - Fans react to Mumbai City FC's AFC Champions League grouping

Mumbai City were drawn in Group D of the AFC Champions League.

In a thrilling and much-anticipated event, Mumbai City FC were drawn into Group D of the AFC Champions League Group Stages. The Islanders, representing Indian football, found themselves in a challenging yet exhilarating group, alongside football powerhouses Al Hilal from Saudi Arabia, Nassaji Mazandaran from Iran, and Navbahor from Uzbekistan.

The reaction on Twitter was swift and explosive, as fans and football enthusiasts shared their thoughts on this momentous draw. One major highlight that sparked excitement was the prospect of Neymar Jr. playing for Al Hilal, a team pitted against Mumbai City FC.

Fans went into a frenzy, imagining the possibility of witnessing Neymar in action on Indian soil during the away match fixture of Al Hilal against Mumbai. The anticipation of such a football legend gracing an Indian stadium was palpable, and tweets flooded in with joyous remarks and wild speculations.

Several fans expressed their exhilaration at the draw, highlighting the unexpected matchups that Group D would bring. Some had hoped for a clash with Al-Nassr FC, where Cristiano Ronaldo currently plays. While that particular encounter didn’t materialize, the draw still promised thrilling football clashes and intriguing storylines.

An interesting point of discussion arising from the draw was the capacity of the stadium where Mumbai City FC would play against Al Hilal. Given the high-profile stature of the match and the star power involved, fans anticipated a jam-packed stadium that would create an electrifying atmosphere.

However, concerns arose regarding the limited seating capacity of the stadium (Shree Shiv Chhatrapati Sports Complex in Balewadi, Pune). It’s imperative that a larger stadium be arranged to accommodate the surge of football lovers eager to witness this historic match.
