Earlier, in the 2 semifinals, Pakistan had defeated Indonesia on penalties, while Burundi were put down by Uzbekistan. Pakistan also encountered Uzbekistan but that game also ended 1-1. Two of the best teams in the tournament made it to the final and still after full time, there wasn’t anything between them.
Street Child World Cup, provides a wonderful opportunity to these children. Team Pakistan has performed admirably well and we must congratulate all involved. The players, coaches and administrators deserve a special thank you. Hopefully, 2022, we can go one step further and take the Cup.
