Football coach eyes victory in foreign land

KARACHI: Pakistan football coach Zavisa Milosavljevic said that the under-22 team’s tour to Thailand, which gets underway on April 17, should provide ample exposure to the players ahead of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) under-22 championship qualifiers.

Pakistan under-22 team left for Thailand for the tour that includes four matches on April 17, 19, 20 and 25. They will play a match against a local club before contesting two against the Thailand’s national team and concluding the tour with a game against the hosts’ under-22 team.

Milosavljevic said that Thailand’s competitive and vibrant football culture will help an inexperienced Pakistan line-up in gaining confidence and learning new techniques.
