Revision as of 20:43, 22 July 2018
Since independence in 1947, nine Indian male footballers have scored three or more goals (a hat-trick) in an international football match. The first player to score a hat-trick for India was Sahu Mewalal in a 4-0 victory over Burma in the 1952 Colombo Quadrangular Tournament.[1] Sunil Chhetri is the only Indian footballer to have scored a hat-trick more than once; he has achieved this feat as many as three times, the latest of which came in India's 5-0 victory over Chinese Taipei in the opening match of the 2018 Intercontinental Cup.[2][3][4] This also happens to be the most recent instance of an Indian player scoring a hat-trick in an international football match. No Indian player has ever scored more than three goals in a single match.
India have conceded thirteen hat-tricks since 1947, the most recent being scored by Ashraf Nu'man Al-Fawaghra in a 4–2 defeat by Palestine in an international friendly match in February 2013.[5][6] Branko Zebec was the first player to score a hat-trick against India, scoring four times for Yugoslavia in the 1952 Helsinki Olympics.[7] Two other players, Bader Al-Mutawa of Kuwait in an international friendly fixture and Ismail Abdullatif of Bahrain in the 2011 AFC Asian Cup, have scored four goals against India.[8][9][10] The only instance of India not losing a game even after conceding a hat-trick happened against Yemen in a 2002 FIFA World Cup qualification match which ended in a 3-3 draw.[11]
