History & Current State of Pakistani Football | PFF & Normalisation Committee | Pressing Matters #37

<p>Ismail Farooq has an incredibly fascinating conversation with Ali Ahsan, Editor of FootballPakistan.com (FPDC) about the history of football in the region, it's (lack of) development and its current state in Pakistan. Starting off from the War of Independence in 1857 and ending at the latest news surrounding Pakistani football, these discussions span many topics, ranging from how cricket got the upper hand over football and how FIFA's corruption and politics are directly linked with Pakistan's problems. The pair also talk at length about the tragic situation of Pakistani football, how things have been this bad for so long, and how the Normalisation Committee will hopefully lead to a new era of Pakistani football in the near future. &nbsp;</p> <p>Edited by: Umer Fasie Bashir &nbsp;</p> <p>Follow us on:&nbsp;</p> <p>FACEBOOK &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fonthemicoffi&amp;redir_token=EpNGmBq8L1O1kFGGpJGT-Iugbh18MTU4OTI4ODYzNEAxNTg5MjAyMjM0&amp;v=kKZYHiiCyjA&amp;event=video_description" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/onthemicoffi</a>... &nbsp;</p> <p>INSTAGRAM &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fonthemic_of&amp;redir_token=EpNGmBq8L1O1kFGGpJGT-Iugbh18MTU4OTI4ODYzNEAxNTg5MjAyMjM0&amp;v=kKZYHiiCyjA&amp;event=video_description" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/onthemic_of</a>... &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>TWITTER &nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fon_themic&amp;redir_token=EpNGmBq8L1O1kFGGpJGT-Iugbh18MTU4OTI4ODYzNEAxNTg5MjAyMjM0&amp;v=kKZYHiiCyjA&amp;event=video_description" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://twitter.com/on_themic</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>Connect with us: &nbsp;</p> <p>INSTAGRAM &nbsp;</p> <p>Umer Fasie Bashir (Editor): <a href="https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fumerfasieb%2F&amp;redir_token=EpNGmBq8L1O1kFGGpJGT-Iugbh18MTU4OTI4ODYzNEAxNTg5MjAyMjM0&amp;v=kKZYHiiCyjA&amp;event=video_descri
