Calcutta is India's undisputed football capital, where the sport is woven into the city's history. It's a relationship going back more than a 100 years, to the time when Kolkata was the second city of the British Empire. A century has passed, the empire has gone -what remains is its unadulterated love for football - not always apparent in expensive replica team jerseys and smart online fan forums but bubbling just below its grainy surface.

The Streets of Calcutta were absolutely decked up during the FIFA World Cup 2022 and it goes without saying that Brazil has plenty of support in this city. This photograph depicts that this passion for the sport is not limited to only humans, but their loyal four legged acquaintances; we were absolutely taken aback by "The Striker's" impeccable spirit & energy on the Streets of Calcutta last year. Will he get a chance to represent Brazil next year?
