International career

He was capped 15 times for the France between 1928 and 1933. His first cap was on 11 March 1928, against Switzerland. He was part of the France squad for the 1928 Olympic Tournament playing in their only match, a 4–3 loss to Italy. He was selected for the France squad for the 1930 FIFA World Cup. Chantrel appeared in all three of France's matches. During the first half of the first match against Mexico, with the score 1–0 in favour of France, goalkeeper Alex Thépot suffered an injury after a collision with a Mexican player, and was unable to continue playing. Substitutions were not allowed at the time, and Chantrel, a halfback, replaced Thépot in goal from the 24th minute until the end of the match, which France won. Chantrel is the only player in World Cup history to see action as an outfield player and as a goalkeeper. He is also the only outfield player ever to replace a goalkeeper after having started the match at a different position. Chantrel's last international match was against Germany on 19 March 1933.
