KATHMANDU: All Nepal Football Association (ANFA) has dismissed four national players ahead of the clash against Kuwait under the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.

ANFA said it took an action against them for visiting nightclubs in Thamel on the eve of leaving Nepal for Bhutan. It took the decision following a consultation with Head Coach Johan Kalin.
