'We Must Stick To The Right Strategies And Play As A Unit', Chhetri Ahead Of Round Of 16 Clash With Saudi

By IANS News September 27, 2023 • 16:22 PM View: 331

Huanglong Sports Centre Stadium: On the eve of India's Round of 16 clash with Saudi Arabia in the Asian Games, Sunil Chhetri, the skipper of the national football team, said on Wednesday that he is aware of the problems the team is facing during its ongoing campaign in Hangzhou, China.

He is also conscious of India’s dismal track record against Saudi Arabia and the present strength of the West Asian side.

However, it could hardly deter him from keeping his focus on the Round of 16 clash to be played at the Huanglong Sports Centre Stadium on Thursday.
