Dhaka, Jan 22: Brothers Union registered their first victory in the Grameenphone Bangladesh League as they upset Dhaka Mohammedan Sporting Club 2-0 at the BSSM Mostafa Kamal Stadium today.
Brother’s Brazilian recruit Everton was the hero of the match as he was the source of both goals.
Brothers took the charge from start but Brazilian recruit Everton Souza’s shot went over cross bar after a one-two attack with Rezaul Karim Liton in the 18th minute.
Brazilian defensive midfielder Denilo Rafael Vivaldo broke the deadlock for Brothers in the 49th minute as his header defeated Mohammedan Ghananian goalkeeper Mohammed Al Hasan on his fellow Everton’s free kick from just out site of the box.
The Gopibagh outfit’s second goal came just two minutes before the final whistle when Toru’s long shot from age of the box area found the net on a cutback by Everton from the left.
After conceding the first goal, Dhaka Mohammedan kept pressure on Brothers but lack of a good finisher was their Achilles heel.
Brothers Union got six points from five matches while Dhaka Mohammedan Sporting Club kept nine points from the same matches.
Two matches will be held tomorrow out site of the Dhaka. Soccer Club Feni will meet Arambagh KC at Feni Stadium at 2:45 while Chittagong Abahani Club Limited will face Chittagong Mohammedan Sporting Club at Cox’s Bazar at the same time.
