Sunil Chhetri’s statement about scoring goals in football, said- players like me have less appetite to score goals

Imphal. Despite reaching the end of his career, 38-year-old Sunil Chhetri’s hunger to score goals has not diminished and the Indian football star wants to score goals in every match. Chhetri, who has scored the most goals (84 goals in 132 matches) among active football players after Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, said, “I believe that not many players have the hunger to score goals like me.”

“My hunger to score goals has always been the same and will remain the same,” he said ahead of India’s match against the Kyrgyz Republic in the tri-nation international football tournament. The Indian team, which has been defeated by 0, just needs a draw.

Chhetri said joining the national camp after his team’s loss to Bengaluru FC in the Indian Super League final was a blessing in disguise. He said, “The national camp boosts our morale. Had the camp not happened, it would have been more difficult for me to digest that defeat.
