Beanibazar 1-0 Moulvibazar

Ahead of Sunday’s Greater Sylhet Cup, which will be hosted at Mabley Green in Hackney, Beanibazar and Moulvibazar met in a warm up game before the tournament kicks off. A competitive and well spirited game saw Beanibazar triumph 1-0 thanks to a goal by Wahid.
The Beanibazar team manager said: “I’m pleased with the dedication shown by the team. We are working on aspects of our fitness but I have been particularly impressed with the skill levels shown. It will be a tough choice selecting a squad but a challenge I am relishing. This tournament is a great idea and we will use this as a springboard to bringing young and old together through sport. Good luck to all competitors ahead of Sunday.”
