Rubcic picks twenty-six

Croat coach Robert Rubcic yesterday announced a 26-member preliminary squad for home and away matches of the pre-Olympic qualifying round.
Bangladesh will play the away match against Kuwait on February 25 and then host the same opponents on March 9 at the Bangabandhu National Stadium.
Only seven players, who have experience to play international matches for the national or Under-23 sides, have been included for the Olympic squad though most of the selected players have experience to play international matches for Under-16 and Under-19 sides.
Before the start of the Bangladesh League from December 27, Rubcic will conduct a four-day training camp starting from December 20 at the BKSP and the players have been asked to report to him on December 19 at the BFF House.
