SAFF Championship: Chhetri pointed out that the team missed many chances of scoring in the game but he is thankful that the Blue Tigers got their first win in the tournament after playing three group stage matches.
“It’s a relief! We have been through a lot. We haven’t been playing well in this tournament and there are so many things that we could have improved on. In the last two games, we pressed well but in front of the goal, we were horrible, to say the least,” said the Indian team captain.
“When you do everything and you still don’t score, then no one is to be blamed but our strikers. Even today we missed so many chances but thankfully we scored at least one and that keeps us alive in the tournament. We still have to improve on a lot of things,” he added.
