Great players are probably like that. For them, all matches are war, all matches are life and death. The same is true of Indian football captain Sunil Chhetri. The match against Bangladesh in the SAF Football Championship on Monday is also a battle for him.
Next on the FIFA list. The meaning of the game is forward. In terms of strength and ability. India’s Sunil Chhetri is expected to play in the match against Bangladesh. But he can’t do that. The memory of losing to Bangladesh in the last match last June does not give him peace, ‘I played against Bangladesh a few days ago. I have played before. The fight is hard all the time. Apart from that, Bangladesh has recently changed coaches. They are strong as opponents. To me, every match is like a battle. So the fight must continue till the end. One hundred percent must be destroyed against Bangladesh. No match is easy.
In the India-Bangladesh match, Sunil became the strongest opponent of Bangladesh most of the time. Last June, Bangladesh lost to India with a pair of goals by Sunil Chhetri in the return match of the World Cup qualifiers in Doha, Qatar. Chhetri’s goal in several previous matches has either led to defeat or Bangladesh has been deprived of victory. That’s why the new coach Oscar Brujon’s plan will be a big part of the chhetri - it goes without saying.
