India’s great footballer Sunil Chhetri on Saturday registered his name in the record books of the Indian Super League (ISL) and became the oldest player to score a hat-trick in the history of the league.
Chhetri’s full go-around assisted Bengaluru FC with enrolling a 4-2 win over Kerala Blasters.
Chhetri turned into the most seasoned player to score a full go-around in ISL history at 40 years old years and 126 days. With this, he abandoned Bartholomew Ogbeche, who had accomplished this accomplishment for Hyderabad FC against FC Goa in January 2023 at 38 years old years and 96 days.
Former Indian captain Chhetri, who retired from international football earlier this year, scored in the 8th, 73rd and 90+8th minutes while Ryan Williams scored the second goal for the team in the 38th minute. Jesus Jimenez (56th minute) and Freddy Lalamama (67th minute) were the goalscorers for Kerala Blasters.
