Abahani leave sans Sunday
Bangladesh Premier League champions Abahani reached Assam yesterday to play their final group match of AFC Cup against Minerva Punjab without their Nigerian striker Sunday Chizoba.
In April, Sunday was late to join Abahani for away match against Chennaiyin FC due to visa complications and they lost that match 1-0.
Abahani manager Satyajit Das Rupu said that they did not get a positive response on Sunday’s visa from Indian high commission, but they are still trying to obtain it through the foreign ministry.
Group leaders Abahani need a victory to progress to the inter-zone play-off but they will miss Sunday and injured Brazilian midfielder Wellington Priori.
The match will take place on June 26.
