Bayezid's Brace Powers Bangladesh Under-15s Past Fiji 3-1 in Baku
Bangladesh shook off a morning defeat to Burundi to beat Fiji on Monday night in Baku, Azerbaijan, ending the group stage of the FIFA Under-15 World Cup and Festival.
Bangladesh played two matches on Monday in qualifying Group G, losing 2-0 to Burundi before beating Fiji 3-1.
Against Fiji, Bangladesh went ahead with two goals a minute apart: Bayezid scored in the fourth minute and Fahim in the fifth.
An own goal in the 28th minute gave Fiji a way back into the match, but Bayezid's second goal late in the 40-minute match sealed Bangladesh's victory.
The result leaves Bangladesh with one win, two draws and two defeats from five matches in the qualifiers.
Bangladesh had begun the qualifiers with a goalless draw against Wales, then lost 3-1 to Portugal, before drawing 1-1 with Indonesia in their third match.
