A perfect start for India in the SAFF Championship 2023:

The legend Sunil Chhetri:

The Indian football team got off to the best possible start in the SAFF Championship after drubbing the Pakistan side 4-0, thanks to three goals from the legend Sunil Chhetri. two of Chhetri’s goals came from the penalty spot while he capitalized on a blunder from the Pakistan keeper Saqib Hanif to score his first of the night.

First Half:

Sunil Chhetri scored twice as India dominated the first half of their SAFF Championship opener against Pakistan. India is well ahead of Pakistan on paper in almost every way and the gulf in class could be seen as a mistake from the goalkeeper who allowed India's Sunil Chhetri to score an easy opener for the hosts. India then got a penalty due to a handball and Chhetri converted that calmly to double his side's lead. Chhetri thus equaled the record for second highest Asian international goal scorer of all time. India were cruising in the first half by leading 2-0. 

Second Half:

The second half turned out to be a more straightforward affair for the hosts. Chhetri completed his hat trick while Udanta Singh turned in one in the last 10 minutes of regulation time. India won 4-0 and kept a clean sheet for a seventh consecutive match.
