Nepal Withdraws From World Cup (Associated Press)
Nepal withdrew from the World Cup, which allows Guam to advance to the second round of Asian qualifying.
Nepal was scheduled to play at Guam on Friday and host the return leg Nov. 28. FIFA, soccer's governing body, announced the withdrawal Friday.
Nepal went 0-6 this fall in qualifying for next year's Asian Cup and was outscored 45-0.

Nepal should stop playing outside the country and save money. Nepal should consider not playing in the competition where it might get defeated by the scores such as 0-5.

I didnt know about it.
Oh well, it had to come sooner or later. Improvement was beyond the expectation for nepali soccer team. How many times do u wana get humilated and embarssed all the nepali people around the world. Recent matches and inceidents suggested that you are interested in soccer anymore.
why not we spend that money in development of nepal cricket. I think nepali U-19 team has defended asia cup twice.

nepalis care about soccer more than any other nation in south-asia, where cricket is highly dominant. i am glad they pulled out of the world cup qualifying, what is the point in playing if you are not prepared enough. the positive aspect is the organizers if they are in their right frame of mind should use all the money they get from the sponsors to develop soccer inside the country before going international again. i still remember those times when we beat bangladesh to win the south-asia cup. i want nepal to rule the south-asia football again. let's go nepal.
about cricket, let us continue doing what we are doing. and not lose the track. basically, not to follow the same track that soccer went thru. personally, i think cricket is far better than baseball.
