Former India goalkeeper Sanat Seth, who was part of the 1954 Asian Games squad, died on Friday after prolonged illness.
Seth, 91, was suffering from age-related problems and breathed his last on Friday morning, according to family sources. He lost his wife last year and has left behind his son.
Known for his acrobatic saves under the bar, Seth began his journey at the Eastern Railway FC in 1949 before moving to Aryan Club in 1951. He then moved to East Bengal in 1957 and the next year he joined their arch-rivals Mohun Bagan, where he played for six years.
