Football was Cheap so Chose this Game

Affordable Football Made the World's Number Two Player

Sunil Kshetri's father was in the engineering branch of the army and played in the army's football team. His father was born in Nepal. Mother Sushila and twin sisters also played football. Football was also talked about at the dinner table in the house. But when Sunil Kshetri was about to start playing, his mind was racing the same game and it was cricket. At that time, like millions of Indians, the region considered Sachin as its ideal. Desired to play cricket at home, but the father could not afford to buy expensive cricket kit for his father. So Sunil became friends with football and started playing.

      The financial condition of the house was not good, so father could not buy football boots again and again. So Kshetri himself used to wear shoes in sequence. Once, while stealing money from the father's paint in the house, he was caught by the mother, instead of scolding the mother herself started crying. She was apologizing for forcing her son to become a thief. That incident changed the life of Kshetri and he started paying more attention to the game than before.

    Kolkata's Mohun Bagan Athletic Club got an eye on him while playing the Durand Cup for the city Delhi Football Club. He started his professional career with Mohun Bagan in 2002 and in 2005 he played his first international match against Pakistan. In 2009 there was a 3-year contract with England football club Queen Park Rangers. But the Indian football team was not in the top 70 in the FIFA rankings. So they were not granted visas. Today he is the number two player in the world in terms of international goals with 67 goals. Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo is No. 1 with 85 goals. Argentina's Lionel Messi is at number 3 with 65 goals.

      Sunil told in an interview that if he did not have a selection in Mohun Bagan, he might have been in the army today or working in a call center. To make the youth aware of the game and to help them, they have developed a 'game plan'.
