KARACHI: NBP will meet KRL in the final of the Pakistan Premier Football Federation (PFF) Cup as both teams won their respective semi-final matches at the Punjab Stadium in Lahore on Saturday.

NBP upset Army 1-0 in the first semi-final after scoring the game’s only goal in the fourth minute via a strike from Mohammad Maqbool.

The more experienced Army tried their best to find an equaliser, but it wasn’t their day as NBP hung on for the win.
