In the eyes of Tamim, football is the number one sport in Bangladesh

Two days ago, Habibul Bashar Sumon went to watch the first match of Bangladesh-Maldives. Another cricket star of the country, Tamim Iqbal, appeared on the football field today to support Bangladesh. Tamim saw a great victory of Bangladesh from the field.

Football was the most popular sport in the country even in the nineties. Cricket has come under more publicity in the last two decades. And Tamim is one of the biggest faces of cricket in the country. However, he thinks that football is still the most popular sport in the country. He told reporters in the gallery during the match today at Bashundhara Kings Arena, 'There is no doubt that football is the number one game in Bangladesh. Then cricket. There is a lot of love for cricket. But football is ahead.'

Despite getting multiple opportunities in the previous match, Bangladesh could not open the opponent's goal. The same mistake was not made today. Bangladesh won despite falling behind. That too in the last minute goal. Tamim came on the field and Bangladesh scored a goal, the team also won. The former captain of Bangladesh thinks that cricketers will come to support football. Footballers will also come to support cricket.

'Hopefully the result will also go in our favor (predicted the match). The matter is mutual. When there is cricket, footballers will come and support. It is also our responsibility to come to the field, not alone, but to bring our family to support' – said Tamim.
