The Pakistan Football Federation has been suspended internationally for the third time in less than 8 years after rejecting FIFA’s recommended amendments to its regulations.
Last week, the Pakistan Football Federation held an extraordinary congress in Lahore, during which it overwhelmingly approved the reforms allowing it to participate in the 2027 AFC Asian Cup qualifiers.
Pakistan team is scheduled to resume its journey in international tournaments and participate in the Asian Cup qualifiers later this month, after the suspension was lifted.
The Pakistani team will begin the campaign by facing Syria on March 25 in Group E.
“We thank FIFA and AFC for their continued support of Pakistan football and extend our congratulations to the Pakistan football community,” said the Pakistan Football Federation in a post on social media.
