Bangladesh Under-20 football team advanced to the semifinals of the SAFF U-20 Championship after a 1-1 draw against India on March 28, 2026. The match saw India take the lead through Vishal Yadav in the 17th minute, but Bangladesh equalized before halftime when Mohammad Abdul Riad scored from a corner delivered by US-based player Ronan Sullivan. The result secured Bangladesh’s place in the semifinals as group runners-up with four points from two matches.
India topped the group on goal difference, while Bangladesh finished second. As a result, Bangladesh will face Nepal in the semifinals, and India will play against Bhutan. The match was competitive, with both teams creating chances in the second half but failing to score again.
Sullivan, who had also played a key role in Bangladesh’s earlier win over Pakistan, once again contributed decisively. The upcoming semifinal against Nepal presents a new challenge for Bangladesh’s young players as they aim to continue their strong performance in the tournament.
