    The All India Football Federation: The All India Football Federation on Wednesday mourned the passing of former India forward Mohammed Rahmatullah. One of the foremost forwards of his time, Rahmatullah represented India on 12 occasions, scoring five times for the country.

    Perhaps his most famous performance came in the 1958 Asian Games quarterfinal, where he scored twice to help India to a 5-2 victory. He made his national team debut against Burma on May 26, 1958.

    Condoling Rahmatullah’s death, AIFF President Kalyan Chaubey said, “Mohammed Rahmatullah was a fine forward in his days, a player who has left a lasting mark on Indian football. His contributions to the National Team and his remarkable achievements at the domestic level will always be remembered with great respect. On behalf of the Indian football community, I extend my heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and the entire football fraternity. May his soul rest in peace.”
