Pakistan football is all ready for a boost as Stephen Constantine takes over once again as head coach for their much-needed Asian Cup 2023 qualifier against Myanmar next month. The veteran Englishman, who last played a role in guiding the Green Shirts to their first qualifier against Syria in March, will once again be at the helm as Pakistan tries to keep their Asian Cup hopes alive.
Training Camp and Preparation Strategy
The Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) Normalisation Committee completed an intense preparation plan. There will be a training camp in Islamabad that starts on June 1, and an early transition to Myanmar on June 5 in order to acclimatize well before the game. This tactical movement enables the team to acclimatize to local conditions and gain a competitive advantage.
Constantine’s Impact on Pakistan Football
With years of international football experience, including spells with India and Nepal, Constantine brings tactical discipline and a methodical mindset to the Pakistan national side. His return is well-timed, given that the team, comprising an array of overseas-based players and domestic players, is in need of consistency and a spark in Asian football.
