TouchSky Director Peter Virdee said, ?The football match has the potential to provide a very public show of support from the whole community which stood together during the riots and the subsequent sad loss of these three lives."



The lives of these three hero?s can never be replaced however measures need to be put in place for the prevention of future incidents and to bridge the divide within the community. In recognition of this objective and following kind agreement from Tariq Jahan and other family members we wish to donate all profits from the match to set-up a legacy programme dedicated to the memory of Haroon Jahan, Abdul Mussavir and Shahzad Ali.



The football match, entitled Clash of the Titans, will take place at Derby FC?s Pride Park on Saturday 3rd September. This will be the first time that India & Pakistan have played one another in football in the United Kingdom. The match will be attended by Tariq Jahan, Abdul Quddoos and other family members and will be launched with a one-minute silence in memory of the young men both teams will also wear black armbands.
