Bashundhara Kings maintain winning streak in BPL

Bashundhara Kings maintained their winning streak in the ongoing ABG Bashundhara Bangladesh Premier League 2023-24 beating Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club Limited by 3-0 goals in the fourth match on Friday.

In the match Brazilian forward Dorielton Nascimento scored a second half brace on behalf of the reigning champions.

After a barren first half and wasting a lot of chances, Dorielton broke the deadlock with a header off a cross from forward Rakib Hossain in the 79th minute at the Sheikh Fazlul Haque Mani Stadium in Gopalganj.  

The Brazilian struck the second goal with a chip-in shot off a pass from his compatriot midfielder Miguel Figueira in the 90+2nd minute before Kings captain Brazilian skipper Robson Robinho extended the margin with a direct free-kick from outside of the box in the 90+6th minute. 

Robson, who has been playing for the Bangladesh giants since August 2020, touched a new milestone on this day scoring his 50th league goal. The Kings skipper was also adjudged the man of the match. 

“I’m happy for it (50th BPL goal), thanks to my club, management, coaches and players for supporting me,” said Robosn.  

In the day’s other match, Fortis Football Club and Rahamatganj Muslim Friends Society played out a 2-2 draw at the Muktijuddho Sriti Stadium in Rajshahi.

Uzbek defender Jasur Jumaev and Gambian forward Pa Omar Babou scored a goal each for Fortis FC in the 23rd and 82nd minutes while Gambian midfielder Dawda Ceesay and Ghanaian forward Ernest Boateng scored one each for Rahamatganj in the 31st and 73rd minutes. 

In the next matches, Sheikh Russel Krira Chakra Ltd will face Abahani Ltd Dhaka in Gopalganj, Mohammedan Sporting Club take on Police FC at the Rafiq Uddin Bhuiyan Stadium in Mymensingh and Chittagong Abahoni Ltd will lock horns with Brothers Union Ltd at the Shaheed Bir Sreshtho Flight Lieutenant Matiur Rahman Stadium in Munshiganj. 

All matches will be held on Saturday at 2:45pm.
