Khalid Irfan was the main offensive threat and top goal scorer for De Maiwand Atalan during the 2014 RAPL main event. His acrobatic goals and late game heroics throughout the season helped De Maiwand Atalan finish forth, just one game away from the championship.
With all of his accomplishments on the field and the recognition he receives from fans via social media, Khalid still manages to keep things in perspective and recognizes his hero. In a Facebook post from October 29, 2014 he said " Mother, let me die for your tears, God please give my entire happiness and my remaining life to my mother, Amen."
During a phone interview, Khalid said, "My mother brought me into this world. Without her love and support I would never be able to reach my goals. She is my hero."
