We have to make sure, and today is the official ticketing event, that not only the boys, but the 2022 U-17 Women’s World Cup will be a bigger success than the last one. Going to make sure. That’s a very apt slogan you’ve picked – kick the dream! It’s the right platform to launch the dream and I’m sure they’ll do well. As Sunil Chhetri rightly said earlier that not only men but also girls should be given equal opportunity.
Speaking after the event, Lindsey Tarpley said, “This is my first visit to India and everyone has been so warm and welcoming. I’m really looking forward to this Youth World Cup and everyone experiencing it. What I’ve been able to experience. It’s going to be an incredible event and it brings a smile to my face to see boys and girls being a part of it and being exposed to the top of the line. And the world. With all the best players from around the world coming to your country, it’s going to be incredible. It’s a step-by-step upward process, and it’s important to have a role model and dreams. Something else to strive for. And then it’s about taking it day by day and becoming the best version of yourself.
Meanwhile, Sunil Chhetri, who along with other Indian legends interacted with the children who participated in various football-based games and activities at the event, expressed pride in hosting such a big tournament.
“It is a great honor to participate in a FIFA competition. It is even more prestigious to host it. Therefore, I urge all football fans to visit the stadiums and see the brightest young women from around the world. Support the footballers. These events are rare and it is an opportunity for us as a nation to make our voice heard from the stands which will represent the popularity of football in India to the watching world,” the Indian said. The captain added.
