India VS Pakistan: People Hold Banners Calling For Peace After Football Match in Bengaluru

India opened their SAFF Championship campaign with a massive win over Pakistan in Bengaluru. Sunil Chhetri bagged a hattrick. The footballer struck in the 10th, 15th and 74th minutes of the match. However, for Pakistan, there was a delay in landing due to some visa issue. The squad arrived in Bengaluru only a couple of days ahead of their SAFF opener. Amid all of this, a video which has surfaced online shows the audience in the stadium, all standing up, as the Pakistan National Anthem plays in the background.
