Footie fever: Get yourself some football merchandise to join the World Cup fun

Buzz on the streets


Football


You know football madness has gripped the city when you walk into parents on a video call with their kids to pick a jersey of their choice from Colaba Causeway. And to keep up with the demand, the stalls near Leopold Cafe are stocking jerseys of various countries including England, Portugal, Argentina, Spain, Germany (a favourite), Columbia, Belgium and Brazil. Available in kid sizes too, these retail for Rs 600 approximately. But the jackpot for sellers this year is the Nigerian jersey, which has been a sell-out all over the world (it sold out globally on the day of its release). Several young football fans ask for the bold neon green, white and black jersey while we are at the stall, and the prices quoted for these are as high as Rs 1,000. Mumbaikars are also asking for the kits of popular footballers such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar Jr.
