Sheikh Jamal Dhanmondi Club defeated Dhaka Mohammedan Sporting Club 1-0 in the Bangladesh League at the Kamalapur stadium on Sunday. Zahid Hasan Ameli scored the winner which created a chaos and controversy.
In the 72nd minute Ameli drove a Shakil Ahmed cross toward the Mohammedan post from the edge of the box which was blocked by Mohammedan goalkeeper Titumir Chowdhury Titu from inside the goal-line and so referee awarded the goal.
Mohammedan protested at the referee’s decision and refused to play the game anymore. They, however, changed their decision and the game resumed after 20 minutes.
With this win Sheikh Jamal joined Sheikh Russell Krira Chakra in third place of the league table with 18 points while Mohammedan are sixth on 13 points.
Earlir, Arambagh Krira Sangha and Farashganj Sporting Club, who have earned 11 and nine points respectively, shared the spoils in a drab goalless draw at the same venue.
