Although Pakistan is below than neighboring countries in football on FIFA ranking but its brimming talent determined to compete top Asian football team as recent show in Asian under-19 football cup held at Oman by AFC was a minor display of attacking football.

Nasir Ismail and his coaching staff have conducted trial in Karachi Naya Nazimabad football ground where more than two hundred players had to go on trial to draw the attention of selection committee. Although Nasir Ismail coaching has been scrutinized by his rivals in Pakistan football but he has a mindset to change the philosophy of Pakistan football as country has tried to play defensive football to avoid humiliation he stated to me.

People want to see national team play like European and South American football but forget to know that players in meager amount and lack of facilities as compared to top Asian team cannot display that football.

Inconsistency is a major cause of under-performing soccer player because game of throne of PFF deprived the player segment to play domestic and international matches, as normalization committee has been constituted to run the football affair until elections of PFF will be held. Indeed Pakistan under 19 football team could not win a single match but first match against Kuwait was remarkable beside national team could not escape from defeat at the hand of Iraq, Palestine and Oman. The participants were better prepared than national junior team but in a short time period selecting a team across the country and make it a competitive side is mountainous task indeed.

Pakistan domestic league is amateur it does not have any official sponsor to bear the burden of league as compare to Indian premier league which once dominated by Pakistani players. Virtually country has to be thankful of AFC, FIFA the football governing bodies have been shouldering Pakistan football but their funds have become major cause of conflict between two groups in PFF.

Elite educated has shown interest to run the affair of football but their whims of earning on the name of innocent kids have exposed on tours where they denied daily wages to touring kids despite having millions of rupees sponsorship to train the poverty stricken areas kids.

Meanwhile a lot of organizations have come and gone but their hollow promises have left the mark of deceit in Pakistan football, authority need to know that football cannot be run on tall claims it need determination and dedication to build stadiums and convince private sector to share the burden of PFF to broadcast the matches of Pakistan Premier League therefore players can get exposure.
