The boys of Shahidur Rahman Shantoo went down 8-1 to the 'Youth A national team' at the Youth Complex in Yangon. No details about the one-sided game were actually made available in the fax sent by manager Imtiaz Sultan Johnny.

The team, which embarked on a three-match tour in preparation for the Asian Under-17 qualifier against Kyrgyzstan in the second week of October, was clueless about the fixtures when it left Dhaka on Saturday.

The young Bangladesh booters, who were expecting to take on an under-18 team, ended up playing a team comprising five Myanmar national players.

According to the team manager about six or seven of that team play in the Myanmar First Division League.

The Bangladesh juvenile team's next two matches are against the Myanmar under-17 team tomorrow and October 4.
