Muktijoddha beat Mohammedan after six years

Mohammedan Sporting Club tasted the first defeat in six years to Muktijoddha Sangsad who beat the Black and Whites 2-1 in a Bangladesh Premier League encounter at the Sheikh Fazlul Haque Moni Stadium in Gopalganj today.

Mohammedan were on a seven-match unbeaten run in the professional football league against Muktijoddha, with their last defeat against the side, a 2-0 loss, coming in 2016.

But the Motijheel outfit displayed a frustrating performance against struggling Muktijoddha, especially given that Mohammedan had beaten Sheikh Jamal DC and held champions Bashundhara Kings in their previous matches.

The crucial triumph saw Muktijoddha climb out of the relegation zone. They now have 15 points from 20 matches while Mohammedan remain glued to fifth with 29 points.

In the day's other matches, Sheikh Russel KC and Rahmatganj MFS posted big wins at separate venues.

Sheikh Russel beat Bangladesh Police 2-1 at the Bashundhara Kings Arena while Rahmatganj beat Swadhinata KS 5-1 at the Shaheed Smriti Stadium in Rajshahi, courtesy of a hattrick from Nigerian forward Sunday Chizoba.

With bottom-placed Swadhinata all but relegated with nine points from 20 matches, Rahmatganj, Muktijoddha and Uttar Baridhara Club -- placed ninth, 10th and 11th with 18, 15 and 14 points, respectively -- are waging an intense battle as they look to avoid the other relegation spot.
