Pakistan’s journey in the tournament got off to a challenging start as they faced a formidable opponent in their arch-rivals, India, and suffered a disappointing 4-0 defeat in their opening match. The Pakistan team had a turbulent journey as they arrived in India on the day of the match after several delays due to visa issues.
Undeterred by this setback, the Pakistani players remain resolute and are channeling their energy toward the next encounter against Kuwait on June 24, 2023.
As the SAFF Championship 2023 progresses, football enthusiasts eagerly await the clash between Pakistan and Kuwait, yearning for a fiercely contested battle on the field.
