Sunil Chhetri And Team Put Up An Electrifying Post Match Celebration After Beating Kenya

After the Indian football team completed a 5-0 demolition of the Chinese Taipei in the quarterfinals of the Intercontinental Cup, skipper Sunil Chhetri wanted more from the fans. In his bid to reassure the lost faith in Indian football, Chhetri made a heartfelt video asking the countrymen to hit the stadium and cheer for the ‘Blue Pilgrims’.

With the news of the tickets being sold out for India’s clash against Kenya, Sunil Chhetri’s video had already struck gold. The Andheri Sports Complex in Mumbai witnessed a gigantic army of Indian supporters and guess what? The players returned the favour in style.

Continuing their fairytale run in the tournament, Sunil Chhetri and his men tore apart the visitors in a 3-0 victory. Finals await.

Despite the thunderous outpour of rain, it was an extraordinary moment in Indian football to see both the players and the fans light up the stadium with everything they’ve got.

However, the party was not over with the 90 minutes of action. What came next was equally electrifying and heartwarming.

Led by defender Sandesh Jhingan, the Indian team went to the sidelines in their attempt to pump up the fanatics at the stadium. Jhingan took centre stage and initiated a cheering session by putting his hands up and clapping. Every clap of his equally matched by the crowd with ear-splitting roars as we could smell a turning point in Indian football.

The Kerala blasters defender concluded the session by moving closer to the crowd and tapping the Indian crest with raging energy and passion.
