Don't have too many India games left, will take one match at a time: Chhetri

India football captain Sunil Chhetri on Friday said he doesn't have "too many games left to play" with the national side and that's the reason why he won't set himself any long-term goals going forward.

Chhetri said he will take one game at a time from now on.

"I understand that I don't have many games left to play for my country. There's no point in jumping the gun. Hence, personally I want to take one game at a time," Chhetri said in a press release issued by the All India Football Federation (AIFF).

The 35-year-old, who is the second-highest goal-scorer in international football after Cristiano Ronaldo, said he has to work hard to maintain his fitness levels even though national coach Igor Stimac has described him as "having the body of a 29-year old."
"At BFC we have really done well domestically. We want to continue on the trend domestically, and most definitely want to do well in Asia. There's an opportunity knocking at our doors this year too, and we need to grab it."
Chhetri said he is aiming "to be a better person than what I was in 2019."
