00:00 The hockey team has made Pakistan proud.
00:03 The way the young players of Pakistan have shown their talent,
00:10 the children of Pakistan are now connected to hockey.
00:16 After 13 years, Azlan Shah Cup final is being played and the team is unbeaten.
00:21 This match was lost only because of penalty strokes.
00:25 Otherwise, these boys have been unbeaten.
00:28 I think the future of Pakistan's hockey has been revived.
00:34 I would like to thank the hockey federation, the Pakistan Sports Board,
00:39 the Pakistan Olympic Association, Ahsan Iqbal Sahib,
00:44 the Prime Minister of Pakistan, Shabaz Sharif Sahib,
00:47 who made it possible for the national camp to be held today.
00:50 I was selected on the merit of these boys.
00:54 They have raised flags on the basis of merit.
00:58 The government of Pakistan will support them for the next events.
01:04 The Prime Minister of Pakistan is calling them Prime Minister House.
01:08 They will appreciate their service and hard work and will announce the awards for them.
01:15 Sir, is there any message for the players?
01:19 The whole nation is standing here and praying for the hockey team.
01:23 Please give a message to the players so that they can win the Australian and Pakistani team.
01:29 I would like to thank Atta Tadar Sahib.
01:34 The way these matches were shown on PTV,
01:37 the interest of the nation increased.
01:41 The whole nation saw the hard work of these boys.
01:45 Today, they are the heroes of the nation.
01:47 Just because PTV took an initiative and ran it,
01:53 we will continue to do such hand-holding in the future.
01:57 How are you feeling?
02:02 The people who are here to support you,
02:05 it is a great thing to win the Super Medal.
02:08 I am very happy.
02:13 The hockey team has reached a level where it is very important for us to win the tournament.
02:19 We have not won, but I do not think that the boys have performed as well as we have.
02:24 The boys have performed very well.
02:26 Losing on the shootout is not a defeat.
02:28 God willing, the time is not far.
02:30 As Mr. Rana said, the Prime Minister of Pakistan has supported us and took a good initiative.
02:34 The Pakistan Sports Board and the Pakistan Olympic Association have played a very important role in sending us to this tournament.
02:42 God willing, this team will bring the world cup for Pakistan.
02:48 I would like to mention the Minister of International Affairs, S.N. Iqbal,
02:52 and the Secretary of International Affairs, Kiani,
02:55 because we appreciate their free hand in this whole work.
03:01 The boys have played very well.
03:03 We have done our best.
03:05 In the first match, we were going down in the second half.
03:07 The coach changed the plan and we were winning 2-1.
03:10 After drawing 2-2, we lost on the shootout.
03:13 I do not think we have disappointed the people.
03:16 You all have seen our matches and our efforts.
03:19 I hope that in the coming time,
03:21 the lost name of Pakistan, the Olympics,
03:24 and the world cup will be remembered.
03:27 God willing, we will help Pakistan win the gold medal and the world cup.
03:34 God willing, all the players have worked hard.
03:41 You have seen that their stamina in the ground field has improved.
03:48 The nation has also appreciated their efforts.
03:51 The Prime Minister has also given them awards.
03:54 They are going to meet him.
03:57 Rana Masood and Bukti have also joined together.
04:00 All of them have worked as a team.
04:03 God has blessed them.
04:05 I would like to congratulate the Pakistani nation.
04:10 First of all, I would like to thank the Prime Minister of Pakistan,
04:13 Mr. Shahbaz Sharif, and especially Mr. Rana,
04:17 because our hockey team had gone far behind.
