Sports Desk:

Bangladesh went down 2-0 against India in their second match of the SAFF U-17 Women’s Championship at the Chamglimithang Stadium in Thimphu on Friday.

Mahbubur Rahman Litu’s charges conceded the opening goal in the 14th minute, goalkeeper Yearzan Begun failing to stop Pearl Fernandes’ left-footed shot despite getting her hands to the ball.

Yearzan had come in for Meghla Roy, who had a rather unconvincing outfit against Bhutan, whom Bangladesh had beaten 3-1 in their opening match.

India doubled the lead in the 76th minute, substitute Bonfilia Shullai volleying home Alisha Lyngdoh’s corner.
