Maradona or was it Madona, Mr. Bilawal?
This is good to see. Quiet apart from PPP's politics, at least BB's children have their hearts in the right place.
Is it Pakistani team or only Zardari family's team?
More false promises!!!
It's good sign for the dignity and honour of Pakistan to encourage the young guns for peace and talent cause. Opening of football in Pakistan will bring much more stability in economic sector gradually.
