- As the 2022 FIFA World Cup host, Bilawal commends Qatar
- Apparently, the president of FIFA and Lyari’s young football players had a conversation
- Declares himself to be proud of the security forces and labourers in Pakistan who helped to make history
Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, the foreign minister and chairman of the Pakistan Peoples Party, claimed that he had spoken to Gianni Infantino, the head of FIFA, about Lyari’s potential as a football city. A historic FIFA World Cup will be held in Qatar in 2022, which he also praised.
A request from Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs allowed Bilawal to travel to Doha on Tuesday to watch FIFA World Cup games.
Taking to Twitter, the PPP leader expressed his gratitude to Qatar’s Foreign Minister, His Excellency Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani, for inviting him to the nation’s ongoing FIFA World Cup.
Grateful to FM of Qatar for inviting me to #FIFAWorldCup. 🇵🇰 is proud of our partnership with our labours & security forces playing our part in this historic moment. Congratulations 🇶🇦 for making history. I also discussed Lyari’s football potential with FIFA president. pic.twitter.com/DtLbJAIlnr

According to Bilawal, Pakistan is proud of its relationship with Qatar because Qatar’s security forces and labour force have contributed to the achievement of this historic milestone.
Later, the country’s foreign minister paid a visit to the embassy and expressed his satisfaction that the specially constructed building is “offering outstanding consular services to the people.”
He said that the Pakistani mission in Qatar would keep pushing for increased bilateral commercial and investment collaboration.
Delighted to visit our Embassy in 🇶🇦 & tour the purpose built facility providing quality consular services to community. @PakinQatar will continue to work hard in further expanding bilat. trade & invest. coop. 🇵🇰 stands committed to taking its relations with 🇶🇦 to next level. pic.twitter.com/4fzRFlRvKK

He declared that Pakistan was dedicated to improving relations with Qatar.
While attending games at the stadium, Bilawal will also interact with football supporters.
The love of football among Layariites was brought up by Bilawal during his conversation with the Fifa president. The soccer-mad Lyari is frequently referred to as “mini-Brazil.”
Many young people enrol in football academies in Lyari and train for hours every day despite the fact that Pakistan has never made it to the FIFA World Cup. One day, they would like to compete on an international level.
The level of enthusiasm among Lyari people is so high that it seems as though Lyari is hosting the World Cup rather than Qatar. When Brazil faced Switzerland, thousands of fans flocked to a miniature version of Brazil, donning the traditional green and yellow uniforms of their side and congregating in front of massive televisions while loud music played.
When Brazil defeated Switzerland 1-0 to secure their place in the knockout rounds, the crowd exploded into raucous cheers and dancing.
