Its a loss of Pakistani national team as well as for Pakistan

This is why we shouldn't attach ourselves to this incomplete, unfair, unpredictable and imperfect life of this world

Woke up to this sad news. May her soul Rest In Peace.


She was the only Pakistani girl who scored Hattrick of goals in international league.

Such are the women break taboos of a society with their talent. And don't always have to whine for equality and don't have to be feminist to make a name worldwide.
