The Foreign Minister went on to say that in a meeting, he also mentioned the football fanbase in Lyari, which is also known as mini-Brazil, as the residents of the city are crazy about football.

Bilawal further added that even though Pakistan team has never qualified for a FIFA World Cup, many young people enroll in football academies in Lyari and train for hours every day.
