there are some nonsense footballer who talks too much even though they are not worth for first Nepali footballer who were flying high and now landed safely... same nonsense shit done by sri Lankan footballer they degraded Bhutanese team and the loss will act as slap .am very happy Bhutan won the match .here is what Lankan said before the match
Former Sri Lanka captain Ashok Nawgalage said the hosts should swat aside the basement boys given the disparity in rankings, and even questioned whether there was any point in the match. "There is no point in punching someone who is 36 positions below us," Nawgalage told AFP. "Playing Bhutan is not very useful, even in terms of acquiring experience." But if adapting to conditions in Colombo will be a challenge for Bhutan, their hosts will face a similar culture shock when they travel to Bhutan's capital Thimpu for a return match on March 17. The match will be at the Changlimithang National Stadium, one of the most picturesque arenas in international football and which also hosts archery tournaments -- the kingdom's national sport. Bhutan was the last country in the world to get television and its debut in the most popular sporting contest is another sign of the end of its traditional isolationism. Even if Bhutan are one of the first casualties on the Road to Russia, the team are determined to do their country proud. "I cannot guarantee 100 percent a win. But we'll fight till the last minute," winger Kuenga Gyeltshen told Bhutan's Kuensel news website.
Due to safety and security reasons and in coordination with AFC, FIFA has decided to postpone the 2018 FIFA World Cup™ qualifier match between Pakistan and Yemen which was due to be played on Tuesday 17 March, in Lahore.
Further details on the date of the match, which will take place in a neutral venue, will follow in due time.
