#2 The Sunil Chhetri factor

<p>
Sunil Chhetri scored yet another brace versus Kenya

Both of India's goals were scored by none other than their captain, Sunil Chhetri. The striker has been in exceptional form throughout the competition and has scored eight goals in the Intercontinental Cup of 2018.

His brace tonight leveled him Argentine captain, Lionel Messi on the list of active international goal scorers, taking his goal tally to a whopping 64 goals, in 102 appearances wearing the Blue shirt.

The man has led the team from the front and has set a true example of being the captain, performing in a time of need.

He has been an integral part of Coach Constantine’s tactics all through the campaign and none of the defenses of the other three participating countries were able to stop the Indian skipper from putting the ball in the back of the net.
