Intercontinental Cup

As I sit down to write this piece, India has won the Intercontinental Cup, and Sunil Chhetri now has 64 goals to his credit in international football – tied with none other than Lionel Messi.

A Mumbai YouTuber booked an entire stand in the stadium, and urged fans to contact him for tickets.

"We promise you that if that’s the kind of support we get every time we play for the country, we will give our lives on the pitch. India, this night was special because we were in this together. Those in the stands shouting, and the ones at home cheering - thank you!"-Sunil Chhetri
