This team can be groomed and may be given the status of Pakistan National football Team, i am sure with more hard work, quality coaching and few tweaks, this team will perform better than the present national side.

Point to note that the selection of team is done on merit and bypassing Pakistan football association had they followed Pakistan football association these players would have never made to the team only players from Lahore will be selected.

Its time Pakistan starts going over to playing football with lesser attention to cricket. Football is an international sport and has much more marketing value than cricket.

Bravo to Habib Bank also. If this bank invest in this team, the very same boys will one day be playing for the national team and who knows we will be watching them playing in FIFA world cup 2000 something. Hard work and perseverance could be the source of miracles!!!!
