Still no answers

Sports Reporter
The hooters after surrendering meekly against India in the semifinal of the Bangabandhu SAFF Championship passed a sleepless night on Friday and tried to discover the reasons behind their poor individual performances, but they hardly got any satisfactory answers.
"There is nothing more to talk about the game and we totally failed against India though we had a plan to press the opponents from the word go, but it boomeranged and pressure got better of us and no player could play his natural game," said Bangladesh captain-cum-goalkeeper Aminul Haque, who, however, had no explanation for the complete failure of the whole team.
Aminul's deputy Wali Faisal was more disappointed with his own show and can't forgive his individual performance.
'Whom will I blame for? 1 myself could not play well and that is the truth. All the players are mentally shattered after a listless performance, much to the disappointment of a capacity home-crowd," said Wali adding that they had a sleepless night after going down to India
The Mohammedan defender, however, tried to find out reasons behind Bangladesh's poor
performance against a youthful Indian side.
“Maybe we failed to put on full concentration on the game, thinking that we were going to play the final with a victory over India and such kind of thinking might have hampered our focus," said the leftback, who was hardly seen in his usual overlapping approach in the match.
Wali, however, was in the dark on how all players performed poorly together at the same time.
“To be honest, one can't always perform, but it is beyond me how all the players failed to perform in a match," said a stunned Wali.
Midfielder Zahed Parvez Chowdhury also had no satisfactory answers.
"After the game, we had a discussion amongst us, but we could not find out any reason why it happened."
Like the post-match briefing on Friday, Bangladesh's interim coach Shahidur Rahman Shantoo found no answers on his boys' poor show despite having held a discussion with them.
"After returning to the hotel, I talked with the players and the replies were that they could not play well throughout the game," said Shantoo during their check out from the Pan Pacific Sonargaon hotel last morning.

poor performance and termed Friday as a 'bad day' for Bangladesh football.
"No type of style appeared in Bangladesh's play yesterday (Friday) and the performance the boys put up was not our real strength," Shantoo said.
"If so, we could not have played well against Bhutan, Sri I .anka and tournament's better side, Pakistan."
He, however, was more disappointed at seeing no challenge from his charges.
"I would notbediscontent if the boys lost the game provid-ingafightingshow.''
Manager Satyajit Das Rupu believed that Bangladesh went on tlie backfoot because the boys were trailing by running against the Indian players.
