The Police will continue in the Bangladesh Football League as they secured a comfortable 3-0 away victory against Arambagh at the Shaheed Miraj Tapan Stadium in Manikganj on Friday. It was the only league fixture of the day, and the visitors made full use of the opportunity.
Police took firm control of the match in the first half. Nepalese forward Ayush Ghalan opened the scoring in the 36th minute, before Amirul doubled the lead just five minutes later. The early dominance left the hosts struggling to recover.
Seven minutes into the second half, Ghalan struck again to seal the contest. With no further goals, the police walked off with a deserved three-goal margin.
