10 men lost to Cambodia in goal miss practice.

Coach Saiful Bari wanted goals from the team before going to Cambodia. Not being able to score is the biggest weakness of the Bangladesh U-17 team, which was understood a month ago in the SAFF U-17 Championship in Bhutan. That's why the coach's voice was full of goals ahead of the AFC U-17 Asian Cup qualifiers. The Under-17 team could not fulfill the coach's demands at the National Stadium in Phnom Penh today. Bangladesh lost 1-0 despite maintaining complete dominance in the match with 10 men against host Cambodia. Against the flow of the game, Daro Tache scored the only goal in the 85th minute of the match.

Arham Islam, a winger of Bangladeshi origin from the youth academy of Australia 'A' League team Western United, played in the match from the beginning. Arham repeatedly attacked from the right side. However, it is understood that the Cambodian defense was extra cautious about Arham. As soon as the ball goes to Arham's feet, two or three defenders surround him. Arham was on the field until 78 minutes. Didn't play too bad as a first match.

The practice of goal misses has sunk the Bangladesh team. Apu Rahman wasted the opportunity. Morshed Ali-Shafiq Rahman did. In the 24th minute of the match, Cambodian defender Visal Kia was kicked in the head while trying to take the ball from Arham. The referee had no choice but to show Vishal a red card. Bangladesh took almost complete control of the game by getting Cambodia as a team of 10. But despite one attack after another, the desired goal was not seen. In the 34th minute, Apu Rahman couldn't score despite finding Cambodian goalkeeper Farib Mat alone. In the 45th minute, Cambodia got a free-kick at the very top of the box, but it could not be put on target. At the very end of the first half, Apu squandered another goal chance.

At the beginning of the second half, Apu and Mithu Chowdhury could not score from a corner in Cambodia's goal. First, Mithu's shot from just in front of the goal post was deflected by the Cambodian goalkeeper, then Apu's shot was not on target. In the 78th minute, Morshed Ali took a good shot from the top of the box, but the Cambodian goalkeeper saved it by fisting it for a corner.
