Bangladesh held strong Myanmar to a goalless draw in their opening Group A match in the six-team 3rd Grand Royal Challenge Cup that began on Tuesday at the Yangon National Stadium.

Bangladesh got couple of scoring chances during the match, but failed to convert those into goal. Custodian Aminul Haque showed brilliant performance under the bar, while Zahid Hossain played good football all through the match, according to a message received here this evening.

In the tournament, Bangladesh has been placed in group A with strong Indonesia and hosts Myanmar, while group B comprises Vietnam, Malaysia and Hyundai FC.

Bangladesh will play the 2nd group match against Indonesia on Thursday at the same venue.
