Football, also called the beautiful game, is a sport that is quite polular in Nepal. In fact, cricket and football are two of the top popular sports in the country and the third popular is not even close to these two. It is played at every level from schools to districts, to region and national tournaments.
But as in cricket, the lack of professional future in the sport is a major drawback and hence the sport is not as successful internationally, since the players have to earn their living doing other jobs. The condition is getting better however, since the players are being taken up by corporate houses and entities like nepal police and nepal army where they can grow professionally.
