Sunil Chhetri is just three goals away from being the highest Indian goalscorer in a winning cause in World Cup qualifiers...
Legendary Indian striker IM Vijayan is currently the highest Indian goalscorer in a winning cause in World Cup qualifiers.
Vijayan, who served the Indian national team for 14 years, appeared in three editions of the World Cup qualifiers (1994, 1998 and 2002) and scored in all three editions where India had won. Four of Vijayan's goals have, crucially, come in winning causes.
Current Blue Tigers Sunil Chhetri is second on the list with two goals.
