Pakistani FM Bilawal takes up Lyari's football potential with FIFA president

DOHA – Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto, in his meeting with the president of top football governing body, discussed the potential for Liyari, a town in the country’s largest city that loves football more than cricket.

He shared views on Liyari’s football potential despite the fact that the South Asian nation never qualified for a FIFA World Cup.

Bilawal travelled to a Middle Eastern country on Tuesday at the invitation from his Qatari counterpart to attend the FIFA World Cup. In his recent social media post, FM expressed pleasure in meeting with the envoy of Qatar for hosting top sports event.

He also praised Pakistani labours and security forces for playing part in this historic moment.
