Chhetri Reveals Reason Behind Retirement, Explains Why He Will Not Play Against Qatar
"It's been a month. It started with a feeling and an instinct that it was time to call it a day. And it grew in me slowly and steadily every day. Finally, I reached this decision. And I think I made the right decision. This (match against Kuwait on June 6, 2024) is one of the biggest games of my career. It is hugely important for the National Team. So, hopefully, we will do well against Kuwait and should be there for the (World Cup Qualifiers) third round," said the Indian football team captain to the All India Football Federation (AIFF).
Many questions arose as to why Chhetri decided to retire after the game against Kuwait on June 6 and not wait until the June 11 qualifier match against Qatar, which could potentially decide whether India will be moving to the next round or not.
