India has had a historic win against Thailand, by beating them 4 to 1 in Abu Dhabi. This is a monumental victory for India, and something that we had been looking forward to.
Sunil Chhetri is certainly the man of the hour, for he managed to score twice. It was his goals which gave India the win it needed.
Twitterati couldn’t be prouder of our men fighting it out in Abu Dhabi. And Twitter reactions say it all.
