Booters lose to Gwangju

Sports Reporter
Bangladesh national y * football team suffered a jS&MBi 2-0 defeat against Gwangju FC in the first of their three practice matches for the upcoming Asian Games at the Mokpo International Training Centre in South Korea yesterday.
The visitors went down in the 22nd minute when opposition forward Jeong Yeong-chong found the back of the Bangladesh net with a deflection from centre-back Tapu Barman while Brazilian forward Sabio Habison doubled the lead with a placing shot in the stoppage time of the second half.
Bangladesh coach Jamie Day fielded two different sets of players in the two halves to test 23 players in a bid to picking the right combination for the Asian Games and the SAFF Championship as well as to see defensive and attacking shapes of his side.
However, the men in red and green did not totally disappoint their English coach as they created a couple of scoring chances against a strong Korean outfit, who were last year relegated to the second-tier from the K-League
Classic.
"I am satisfied with the way my team played the match. Our boys made some mistakes in this match, but in the next match we will not do the same mistakes and we will play much better," Day said in his post-match reaction.
Team manager Satyajit Das Rupu said luck was not on their side. "We did not expect to concede the lead the way we did because goalkeeper Rana was ready to catch the ball but it changed direction with a deflection from Tapu. The boys also got opportunities to level the margin three times between 27 and 45 minutes."
According to him, Saad nutmegged a defender to enter the danger zone but the forward was late to muster his shot as the ball was cleared while Rabiul Islam floated a cross from Mohammad Abdullah over the bar. Later Abdullah shot over the bar despite getting the goalkeeper in a one-on-one situation.
"The defensive organisation was good even though there were some positional mistakes that actually broke the defence line while the boys also went into attacks on the break but they could not cash in on those opportuni-
ties," said the former national footballer.
Goalkeeper Rana, Tapu, Tutul Hossain Badsha, Rahmat Miah, Biswanath Ghosh, Jamal Bhuiyan, Mashuk Mia Jonny, Rabiul Islam, Mohammad Abdullah, Mahbubur Rahman Sufil and Saad were fielded in the first half while goalkeeper Anisur Rahman Ziko, Nasir Chowdhury, Wali Faisal, Sushanta Ghosh, Emon Babu, Atiqur Rahmna Fahad, Biplu Ahmed, Jafar Iqbal, Fazle Rabbi, Matin Mia and Shakhawat Hossain Rony played the second half.
"The opponents were ahead in terms of skill, technique and tactic but our boys tried their best on the pitch," assistant coach Masud Kaiser said. "The head coach tried to boost the players' confidence by giving opportunities to many players. He will, however, field only players from the Asian Games squad in the next two matches to give more gametime ahead of Asian Games's group stage matches against Uzbekistan, Thailand and Qatar in Jakarta."
Bangladesh will play their second practice match against Shinhan University tomorrow.
