Rasheed praises PFF chief

19 Jun, 2007

Pakistan Olympic Football team coach Muhammad Rasheed has praised Pakistan Football Federation (PFF)'s President Makhdoom Syed Faisal Saleh Hayat for lifting PFF from scratch. "The previous PFF body completely ruined the game and the scenario was that of dejection but now PFF is one of the two strongest sport bodies of Pakistan", said Rasheed here on Monday.
In order to generate new spirit in football players, it is necessary to apply professional approach and all players/officials of Pakistan U-21 team were jubilant when they took handsome money from Faisal at Fifa Football House, Rasheed added.
Rasheed, who completes memorable double over Singapore in international soccer circuit - beating them as player in 1981 King's Cup and as coach in 29th Olympic Games Qualifier - said that all the head coaches of teams who played against us appreciated the handling of Faisal Saleh Hayat in enhancing the game in Pakistan.
