Hello everyone. First of all big thanks to @marcybetancourt for hosting the contest. I am delighted to take part and take this opportunity to talk about my country's football.
Introduction
I am from Nepal, country where Mt. Everest is Located. Before 7-8 years, there was not that much quality in football due to various reason like finance, no attention towards football, no good training . But recent years we have progressed a lot showing signs of improvement, players training hard, recruit more potential young players due to which we could win and achieve trophies.

State of football in my country. What has changed ?
Looking current state , I am very happy with the players skills, training , improvement and I can see some serious potential to win bigger games compared to before 7-8 years back. Over the years, lots of changed in improving stadiums, football getting lot of support and love from the fans and country. Although we are able to participate and win games in South Asia but sometimes games have been played worst and face the loss in different tournaments.
Strong and Weak Points
Player has good stamina, good passing skills, ability to score, dribble as well as good tackle. Main vulnerabilities is players are not that tall that leads to disadvantage in aerial balls in terms of offense and defense . Other is players are inconsistent and they play too much aerial balls which they shouldn't.
Will the team qualify for the next World Cup?
Even though young talented potential players have emerged in recent years helping to win games in south asian region but looking to the top teams , there's lot of improvement to be done in order to step into those big games. It could take a lot of time but looking at the current progress of country's football, we can play in World Cup in no time. Let's hope.
My Message to Football Team
Train hard, always learn new skills. focus on weak areas and try to lift team spirit during tough games. Give 100 % to each game and aim for the best. Learn from the defeats. Show sign of improvements . Be strong inside and outside the game after win or defeat. Finally, learn from the bigger teams and players from all around the world.
ENJOY FOOTBALL
