Bangladesh need a win and...

Sports Reporter from Kathmandu
Bangladesh coach Lodewijk de Kruif has said that Bangladesh need a bit of luck, which they have not had in the 10th SAFF Championship so far, to qualify for the semifinals.
Bangladesh have only one point from two matches, and need to beat Pakistan in their last group match today and hope that the result in the match (which will take place at the same time inn another venue) between India and Nepal go in their favour.
"We need a little bit of luck. The luck was with India as there are a lot of other people who are supporting them outside the pitch. We need that luck tomorrow," said de Kruif to reporters at the team hotel yesterday.
The equation that takes Bangladesh to the semifinals is a tricky one. First of all, Bangladesh need to beat Pakistan by a healthy margin (e.g 2-0) and hope that the other match produces an outright result. If Nepal beat India 1-0, Bangladesh will need to beat Pakistan by 2-0 and that will ensure their qualification. However, If India beat Nepal by one goal, then Bangladesh will have to beat Pakistan by at least 3 goals. But if India and Nepal play out a draw, then both will go through and Bangladesh will be eliminated from the championship, regardless of the result and the scoreline against Pakistan.
The Bangladesh coach fears that the last eventuality could be the very result that might become reality, going by the nature of the tournament.
"Is it fair play, is it match fixing? I don't need to say, everybody knows, the world is looking, the media is looking," said de Kruif while talking about his apprehension about tomorrow's match.
De Kruif s opposite number in tomor-
row's match, Pakistan coach Shaazad Anwar also believes that Pakistan have been harshly dealt with by the referees and that it will not be a surprise if India play out a draw against Nepal today.
"It happens in international football, and we cannot do anything about it," said Anwar.
However, India coach Wim Koevermans claimed that his side play will play for nothing but a win.
"We will play to win. We came here to retain the title and that remains our target. It doesn't matter whether we play well or bad, what matters is that we become champions, " said the Dutchman.
For the Bangladesh coach, the championship is quite a distant dream at the moment. All his thoughts are occupied with is a win in tomorrow's match.
"Let's stick to the facts, which are that we have to win tomorrow to stay in the tournament. Then we depend on the result of the other match," said De Kruif.
