Later, during the 63rd minute, Waqar made a move to successfully score the third goal required to seal the victory for the team and clinch the City title from Malakand.

Ufone teams also visited various Schools, Colleges and Universities in the match cities engaging in exciting activities organized for the youth students and also a chance to win football cup related merchandize and gifts. Ufone believes that engaging youth in healthy activities, such as sports, has a positive effect on their mental and physical development. Hence, more the reason that a Pakistani cellular company provides platform to its Country’s youth to showcase their skills and display their talent to the rest of the Country. The tournament in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa builds over the success of three editions to Ufone’s Balochistan Football Tournament which evolved to become one of Balochistan’s major sporting event.
