Bangladesh booked a spot in the SAFF U-17 Championship final with a commanding 2-0 victory over Pakistan in Colombo on Thursday (September 25). Both goals came in the opening minutes, sealing the win early.

Captain Nazmul Huda Faisal opened the scoring in the 3rd minute, capitalising on a goalkeeping error before calmly slotting home. Just a minute later, Apu Rahman doubled the lead with a fine left-footed curler past the Pakistani custodian.

Though both sides had chances in the first half—including disallowed goals for offside—Bangladesh held firm. After the break, Faisal and Rifat Kazi came close, but Pakistan’s late surge was repelled by a resolute defense.

Golam Rabbani Choton’s side will face the winner of the India–Nepal semifinal in the title decider.
