Footnotes

  1. ↑ RSSSF mistakenly count the match at 2007 AFC Asian Cup qualification between Yemen and India but in-fact he only played in one match in the year 2006. It was in a 0–3 defeat to Japan in the same competition. [4] [5]
  2. ↑ Chhetri also previously appeared thrice for the India U-20 side and scored 2 goals at the 2004 South Asian Games. [6] [7] He also scored 2 goals in 4 matches at the 2022 Asian Games. [8] [9] These matches are not considered as FIFA 'A' international goals but are considered official goals by AIFF. He also scored a goal in an unofficial friendly match against Qatar. FIFA allows a maximum of six substitutions by each team for friendly matches, [10] but in the match against Qatar, more than six substitutions were made by India, [11] thus the match is not considered an official match.
