We need to hire foreign coaches for U14-U16 teams.

[MAFIAN GOD]

IT IS VERY DIFFICULT FOR ANY SOUTH ASIAN COUNTRY TO MAKE A GOOD FOOTBALL TEAM BCOZ WHEN WE SEE BALL COMING TOWARDS US WE TRY TO SHOT IT BEYOND BOUNDRY.

 

[Kinetic]

So many people from our region are excited about football but no effort so no talents are coming out. only cricket and cricket............

 

[Pride]

I would love to see India and Pakistan's match in world cup football final as I lost interest between 2 team's cricket match which I used to have 10-15 yr ago. Hockey started fascinating me for these two teams again strangely. Anyone on the same league?

 

[Karachiite]

Lyari in Karachi has the most football talent. If there's more funding and attention to football in Pakistan than we can actually make it to the international level in like 10-20 years.

nice!!!!!....

Let's be optimistic, for sure we need funding and infrastructure to boost football but if you watch some really out class international football players like Zanetti of Argentina football team, he used to play football in the streets like childrens play cricket in streets in Pakistan! if we talk about brazilians then you must know that Ronaldo, Adriano, Julio Cesar and many other players were so poor that they even don't had money to buy a proper football so they invented a ball with some newspaper and rap it with a peace of cotton and put it in a sock taken from garbage and played with it...and guess they are among the world best players. So the point is, if you have talent then also without an out class infrastructure you can make some good players. All we need is a little support for football.

FIFA WorldCup 2018: Pakistan provides millions of Most High Tech Footballs in World

FIFA will use sensor-equipped footballs in the upcoming world cup that have been manufactured in Pakistan.

The biggest footballing event that keeps people at the edge of their seats is going to be a technological marvel. As we reported earlier, the official match balls for this world cup have been manufactured in Pakistan. What makes these balls different from the conventional ones is that technology has been used to revolutionize how the game is played.

The footballs will be equipped with sensor chips with Near Field Communication (NFC) tech that will be connected to a smartphone. The chips don’t really need a special Adidas app to work. You just need to enable NFC on your phone and have the ultimate personalized content experience.

Telstar and the Chip

Adidas is bringing back it’s iconic Telstar ball that was Adidas’ first-ever and used in a FIFA world cup in 1970. The ball is called Telstar 18 and you already know it is manufactured in Pakistan. The ball is thermally bonded, meaning heat instead of stitches was used to patch the pieces. Telstar’s seamless surface is designed to ensure precise ball control and reduce water absorption as well.

The embedded chips will help provide the users with personalized content and interaction with the global community. Fans can also upload their videos doing challenges using the Telstar 18 as different competitions will be announced later on. It will further give its owners information about other Adidas products as well.

The technology isn’t as sophisticated as Adidas micoach Smart Ball that gives information like curl and pass speed, shot power etc. but it works just fine considering its an NFC debut match ball.

Take a look:

Pakistan and The Ball

The Telstar 18 has been manufactured by Forward Sports based in Sialkot. Sialkot is known as the hub of world-class sports equipment and for the past few decades, it has been the biggest exporter of footballs to the world. Here are some of the facts about city’s phenomenal sports culture;

• Sialkot is one of the most industrialized cities in the world with around 126 industrial units per square kilometers.
• These industries earn about $2 billion annually making up about 10% of the country’s total exports.
• The industries in the city employ around 400,000 people as well.
• World’s biggest leagues like English Premier League, LaLiga, Ligue 1, Bundesliga, and UEFA Champions League use the same balls manufactured in Sialkot.
• Sialkot accounts for 70% of the total demand for footballs to the world. More than 40 million footballs are exported every year from the city. The industries have enough capacity to produce 18,000 every day.
• The city got global attention in 1982 when its footballs were used for the first-time ever in the FIFA world cup that year.

Not just footballs, the city is known to provide quality tennis, cricket, and hockey equipment as well. Furthermore, it is also home to the world’s second-best surgical instrument industry as well.

me too
Imagine, if we have a International Football team playing World Cup Semi Final
Just imagine, as that is not going to happen for another couple of decades may be
But it sounds so cool naa?

Let Balochs of Liari Karachi play, they are capable of winning world cup within 2 years. Punjabis/Sindhis will never be able to win this game till eternity, they are simply not made for this game.

 

[Menace2Society]

Just imagine Pakistan scoring a goal in a world cup. The soft image potential is unreal.

 

[Asian.Century]

The country which makes footballs and sells them all over world cant even get qualified for one worldcup, what a shame.
