India’s SAFF Championship All-Time Best XI

Left Forward: IM Vijayan

The legendary forward is the all-time highest scorer of the SAFF Championship with ten goals and has won the tournament three out of four attempts. Vijayan netted in each of India’s three games in the inaugural edition in 1993 but 1997 was his best tournament as he scored six including a brace in the 5-1 thrashing of Maldives in the final in Kathmandu and became a favourite among the locals there also.
