XtraTime Web Desk: Another inspiring moment for Indian football fans, as Indian captain Sunil Chhetri on Sunday featured in an Asian Football Confederation (AFC) campaign to fight the COVID-19 pandemic and requested people to do all they can to overcome “these challenging times”.
In the latest instalment of the continental body’s ‘BreakTheChain’ campaign, the Indian talisman was accompanied by Chinese Football Association (CFA) vice-president Sun Wen, acknowledged as one of the greatest women players to have graced the world stage, and Myanmar captain Kyaw Zin Thet.
The campaign was launched earlier this week to combat the spread of the COVID-19 outbreak, and it also features former India captain Bhaichung Bhutia.
The campaign, which garnered the support of more than 50 Asian players and officials in less than 48 hours since its launch on Thursday, encourages people not only to adopt the best hygiene practises as underlined by the World Health Organization (WHO) but also “inspires hope and solidarity in these challenging times”, an AFC release stated.
