In India, the average football scores in local leagues and tournaments vary significantly across different regions and competition levels. The Indian Super League (ISL), the top-tier professional football league, typically sees average scores ranging from 2.5 to 3.5 goals per match, with teams like Mumbai City FC and ATK Mohun Bagan often involved in high-scoring games.
Regional leagues such as the I-League generally have slightly lower average scores, around 2.0 to 3.0 goals per match. Factors like pitch conditions, weather, and team strategies influence these averages. For instance, matches in Goa, known for its passionate football culture, often feature more attacking play and higher scores compared to some northern regions.
Youth and amateur leagues across India show even more variation, with average scores frequently falling between 1.5 and 2.5 goals per game. The development of football infrastructure and training programs continues to impact scoring patterns nationwide. |
