In the country where people are crazy about sports, Ridvan from Kerala who is a part of FIFA Manjeri football team playing in Malappuram 7s league took what could be the toughest decision of his life.
Ridvan on his wedding day had to choose between football and marriage as his team needed him in their defence in a 7s match.
Reportedly, Ridvan decided to choose football and he told his bride, “excuse me for five minutes!” and rushed onto the 7s match!
Interestingly, his team won the match, Ridvan being instrumental behind that win while back in his home things were shakey as the bride and her family were deeply annoyed at Ridvan’s actions.
According to the website Talksports24x7, she said, “So if the game was at noon, would you cancel the marriage for the game?”

We hope that Ridwan had a good reply to that and had a smooth wedding after he got back.
Meanwhile, Rajyavardhan Rathore hailed his dedication and wished to meet Ridvan.
