Bashundhara Kings clinched the Bangladesh Premier League title in advance, marking their sixth league victory, as captain Topu Barman hailed it as his most challenging triumph to date. The team secured a decisive 2-0 win over Abahani Limited Dhaka, matching Abahani’s record of six league titles.
Speaking from Cumilla, Topu shared that this win was particularly tough due to increased sacrifices and hard work amidst challenging circumstances faced by the club over the past two years. Financial constraints and the absence of foreign players posed significant obstacles, with several key members leaving mid-season.
Despite these setbacks, local players remained resilient, determined to uphold the club’s reputation and perform at their best in every match. The team’s commitment was evident in their approach to the crucial clash against Abahani, knowing that a defeat could jeopardize their season’s efforts.
Looking ahead, midfielder Sohel Rana expressed ambitions for a domestic treble, with the Federation Cup final against Mohammedan Sporting Club on the horizon. The team’s focus now shifts to securing victory in the upcoming final, building on their successful league campaign.
Bashundhara Kings’ triumph in the Bangladesh Premier League, alongside their upcoming Federation Cup final, underscores their resilience and determination in the face of adversity, culminating in a well-deserved title win.
