Pakistan out of FIFA World Cup 2014 qualifying Round

LAHORE: The football world cup qualifier match between Pakistan and Bangladesh ended in a draw on Sunday.

Resultantly, the Pakistani team is out of the world cup qualifiers, and will not play the 2014 Fifa World Cup.

The team needed to win with a four goal margin to qualify for the next round, which it did not manage to do.

Pakistan had lost the away-leg to Bangladesh 3-0 in Dhaka earlier this week. This second leg match of the qualifier was being held at the Punjab stadium in Lahore.

The Pakistan coach said the team had lodged a complaint against the conditions in Dhaka where rain had affected the team’s preparations and the pitch as well.

Bangladesh will start its series against Lebanon on July 23.
