With the FIFA World Cup in full swing and the final match just round the corner now (on Sunday, July 15), football fever is raging high all across the world. Soccer enthusiasts are glued to their screens and following almost every match even the ones their countries are not playing.
With a sporting event as huge as FIFA, a local anthem is inevitable. After all, our team may not have made it to the grounds but Pakistan is being represented at every single match that is being played in Russia this year by TelStar 18- the official match ball of the 2018 FIFA World Cup produced in Pakistan’s Sialkot city.

With its powerful beats and catchy lyrics, the song has broken through the noise barrier and received much attention and applause. In fact, what’s amazing is to see football fanatics from different parts of the world gathered in Russia, chanting the chorus, “Dhak Dhak Goooaaaal”!!!
