Even the biggest British football fans can probably be forgiven for not knowing the name Harun Hamid.

The 19-year-old was released by second-tier side QPR at the end of last season and currently doesn't play for a professional side.

But just last month Harun's name was on the lips of millions of people in Pakistan when he scored the biggest goal in their World Cup qualifying history.

His goal saw the country beat Cambodia 1-0 for their first win in five years - putting them through to the second round of qualifying for football's biggest tournament for the first time.

"I was just filled with adrenaline and had to hit the knee slide in front of the fans," London-born midfielder Harun tells BBC Asian Network.

Pakistan's reward for the win is their highest profile game to date, a match against Saudi Arabia - the only team to beat World Cup winners Argentina at last winter's tournament - at 16:30 GMT on Thursday.
