Asian Games: Sunil Chhetri Set For Another Record As India Begin Football Campaign Against China
Huanglong Sports Centre Stadium: Veteran forward Sunil Chhetri will open another memorable chapter in his glorious career when two-time gold medallists India open their campaign in the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou on Tuesday. This time, he will also be making it to the record books, joining an elite list of Indian footballers who have led the country at two Asian Games.
Chettri will be leading India out onto the field when India take on hosts China in their Group A match at the Huanglong Sports Centre Stadium.
The 39-year-old Chhetri, who led India in the 2014 edition at Incheon, South Korea, will become only the third Indian captain to lead the team in two Asian Games -- joining the likes of Sailen Manna (1951 and 1954) and Bhaichung Bhutia (2002 and 2006) on the special list.
