Tipu ignites Abahani

Sports Reporter
Shahajuddin Tipu renewed his super-sub status with a late strike to inspire Abahani record a hard-fought 2-0 win over Muktijoddha Sangsad in yesterday's Citycell B.
League match at the Bangabandhu National Stadium.
An otherwise unimpressive Zahid Hassan Emily, who set Tipu's opener 11 minutes from the final whistle, added the other from a 84th minute penalty to take the defending champions to the top of the table with their sixth win in seven matches.
Abahani, whose winning streak was broken with a 2-2 draw against archrivals Mohammedan in the previous game, showed
the hangover from a big match four days earlier and almost fluffed the chance to reclaim lead due to lack of concentration.
But the Sky Blues were rescued with late acts in the eighth round encounter that pushed their collection to 19 points, two ahead of Sheikh Russel while Muktijoddha remained second from bottom with four points following their sixth loss.
Despite enjoying superior ball possession, Abahani failed to make an impact on an eightpack Reds backline, which defended doggedly against swelling Blue tide.
There was no clear cut chances in the first half hour but Abul drove a freekick just over Nizam's crossbar before Ibrahim's close-range shot found a defensive wall.
The Abahani forwards finally begun to keep their efforts on target but veteran Nizam made
a series of saves to keep Atiqur Rahman's side in the game single-handedly.
The former Abahani goalie dived full stretch to grip a low shot by Abul in the 35th minute and showed nice legworks to deflect Emeka's first-time placing shot from close two minutes later.
The resulting corner almost put Amalesh Sen's league leaders ahead but Nizam pulled off a terrific one-handed save on Emeka’s header. Ibrahim collected the rebound and the Ghanaian found Emeka but the Nigerian, who struck both the goals against Mohammedan, saw his tap from handshaking distance cleared from the line by a Reds defender.
The struggling Muktijoddha, who managed to put an end to their five-match losing streak at the start of the league with a draw against Brothers Union and a victory against Rahmatganj, put aside the latest row between players and management and came close to steal the lead on the stroke of the break. But stand-in skipper Kanchan, who picked up Jalal's pass during a rare counter attack and had only the outrushing goalkeeper Biplab to beat, failed to keep his shot from 18 yards under the bar.
The Abahani camp, also struggling with injury and fitness problems of midfield
trio Pranotosh, Mamun and Ujjal and skipper Nazrul, rued another bad miss as Emeka nodded the ball onto the crossbar after Zahed's centre two minutes after resumption.
With time running out, the Sky Blues went all out but Muktijoddha midfielder Jalal created an opening in the 64th minute when his low cross from the left was hastily cleared by Samad Yussif. The ball came to Walid and the Muktijoddha striker look a perfect shot from the edge of the area only to be denied by the stand-in Abahani cap-tain's spectacular diving save.
Amalesh then made the first of his three changes inside ten minutes when he brought striker Tipu in forZahed in the 67th minute and the veteran, still popular as the country's super-sub following his winning goal against India in Bangladesh's 1 -0 victory in the 1999 SAF Games semifinal in Kathmandu, delivered 12 minuteslater.
At first it looked like an innocuous cross from Emily when the striker floated the ball from the right but Tipu, waiting at the far post, jumped between two defenders to put a weak header into Nizam's right hand post for his first goal of the season.
Nizam was unfortunate to concede such a 'soft' goal as the Muktijoddha keeper lost his foot while diving and crashed against the sidebar.
He was later stretchered off the field due with heavy swelling on the head.
Emily then won a penalty when he was tripped by Roni just inside the area and sent substitute goalkeeper Himel the wrong way to seal the victory from the spot. It was his fifth league goal.
