Indian football team captain Sunil Chhetri has told that ever since he played the first match in the national team, everyone wants him to score. Chhetri made his international debut against Pakistan in 2005. IndianSuperLig.com quoted Chhetri as saying, "I made my Pakistan debut, ever since then everybody wants me to score."
Players like Baichung Bhutia and Renedi Singh were in the team when Chhetri made his debut. He said, "There is no comparison between the two of us. The good thing was that Baizung Bhai was in the team at that time. Baichung, Mahesh Gawli, Surkumar Singh, Cleimax Lawrence were part of the national team at that time and it They were all great players. They supported me. "
Chhetri said, "But he never interfered in my freedom. Everyone wanted me to score. The 70 goals I have scored for the national team is the result of that." Chhetri also told that in the early days he used to be so much pressure while playing in Kolkata that he used to cry.
He said, "The first year was good. I used to get 20-30 minutes of game time in the match. People used to call me the next Baichung Bhutia, but Kolkata football teaches you very quickly. When you start losing, the spectators become dangerous. There was a time when I cried. Losing in Kolkata is not an option. "
