However Nepal almost conceded a goal in 27th minute, but the fine left footed shot from Musam went inches away from the far post on a missed counter attacking opportunity from Turkmenistan.



A long ranger from Anil Rai was victim of beautiful save from Turkmenistan goalkeeper Berdiyev who stretched at his full to save the ball. However Nepal got the lead in first half with Bimal concluding the half in second minute of added time to head the ball home after a fine work from Amit Tamang who produced an assist to Nepal’s captain.
