Kathmandu, October 24 — In an impressive display at Dasarath Stadium in Tripureshwor, Bhutan triumphed over the Maldives with a remarkable score of 13-0. This victory not only showcased Bhutan’s skill but also catapulted them to the top of Group B in the tournament standings.

The match was dominated by Bhutan from start to finish, highlighting their offensive strength and teamwork. The Maldives struggled to keep pace, allowing Bhutan to capitalize on their opportunities and rack up an astonishing number of goals.
