BD take on Nepal in final today

The Bangladesh under-14 women's football team will lock horns against their Nepalese counterparts in the final of the AFC U-14 Girls' Regional Championship at the Nepal Army Physical Training Centre in Kathmandu today. The Bangladesh team were looking forward to clinching the title with renewed vigour after having witnessed their brilliant run to the final halted by a devastating earthquake, which struck the Himalayan nation on the originally scheduled final on April 25 this year, forcing a postponement of the match.

Bangladesh team's head coach Golam Rabbani Choton said his charges will try to play attacking football to try and bring the trophy home while his opposite number felt it would be a tough affair as both teams proved their worth on way to the final, according to a press release from the Bangladesh Football Federation. Bangladesh had beaten Iran 2-0 while Nepal had beaten India 1-0 in their respective semifinals.
