The past decade was a fruitful journey. When I made my debut in 1995 at the age of 13,I never thought I would make it so far.

Over the last 10 years,Indian football has stagnated. Our FIFA world ranking—106 a decade back—is now 134.

For me,this was a decade of hope. And not just because of the awards I got this year.
