Netizens troll Indian football team

A few years ago, when Sunil Chhetri urged Indian fans to attend their matches in person, the response was overwhelming. Fans from all corners of the country started filling stadiums for India's matches and other league games featuring Indian stars.

However, despite the tremendous support, the Indian men's football team has consistently disappointed their fans, facing tournament exits one after another. In the latest development, India suffered a humiliating 1-0 defeat to Syria, leading to their elimination from the AFC Asian Cup 2023.

This disappointing performance has prompted Indian football fans to mock the national team, with head coach Igor Stimac also bearing the brunt of fans' frustration.
