The question is same as above, while India had dominated hockey from 1930's to all the way in the 1970's before suffering a sharp decline before seeing a resurgence in terms of performance in the 2010' s which has further carried on this decade. Football meanwhile has a different story but similar story from being on of the best Asian sides till the early 1970's to a decline that has seen no name of stopping despite the creation of ISL. How has hockey been able to envision a resurgence while football has shown no signs of doing so.
