TheBangladesh national under-20 football team representsBangladesh in international youthfootball competitions inSAFF U-20 Championship,AFC U-20 Asian Cup andFIFA U-20 World Cup, as well as any other under-20, under-19 & under-18 international football tournaments. The team is operated under theBangladesh Football Federation.
They have qualified for theAFC U-20 Asian Cup six previous times and is yet to qualify forFIFA U-20 World Cup. The team taken part in four editions of theSAFF U-20 Championship, and won their maiden title in2024.[1][2] Since 2022, Bangladesh U-20 began taking part in all stages of the AFC Championship. Previously, the U-19 team participated in the tournament.[3]
After becoming affiliated with theAsian Football Confederation in 1973, the Bangladesh team were given direct entry into the1975 AFC Youth Championship &1977 AFC Youth Championship, although they ended both tournaments without achieving a single victory. TheBangladesh Football Federation however, failed to arrange a regular youth setup as the team did not participate during the 1974 and 1976 editions of the tournament even after acquiring AFC membership.
The1978 AFC Youth Championship was held inDhaka, becoming the first major football tournament held inBangladesh. Coaches Abdur Rahim and Abdus Sadek were given the task of building the team with three months to go. However, West Germany'sWerner Bickelhaupt came as the head coach of the team on the initiative ofFIFA. Bickelhaupt, the first foreign football coach of Bangladesh's national team at any level, later served as the coach of the senior team as well. Bickelhaupt's team consisted of: Suhas Barua, Moinul Karim,Dewan Arefin Tutul, Abul Hossain,Sawpan Das, Mukul, Kawsar Ali, Abdus Salam, Md. Badal,Ashish Bhadra,Aslam,Hasanuzzaman Bablu,Kazi Anwar, Hasan Ahmadul Haque,Golam Rabbani Helal,Salam Murshedy,Mohammed Mohsin (captain). Standby: Abdul Halim, Majid, Ghaffer, Moni, Wahiduzzaman Pintu. The team leader was Zillur Rahman, joint manager Nabi Chowdhury and AQZ Islam Kislu and assistant coach Abdur Rahim. Bangladesh were drawn into Group C withSingapore,North Yemen,Bahrain andKuwait. All games were held at theBangabandhu National Stadium.[4]
Bangladesh's first match was against Singapore. A quick double from Singapore striker Donang, saw the hosts fall behind 2–0. However, goals fromAshish Bhadra and captain Mohsin meant the game finished 2–2. In the next game against North Yemen, the Bangladesh team created history by winning the game 1–0, thanks to a lone goal by strikerHassan Ahmedul Haque.[5] However, the next match saw Bangladesh being defeated 2–0 by Kuwait, the team ended the tournament with a 1–1 draw against Bahrain, due to a penalty taken by Moshin. The draw meant Bangladesh had failed to reach the quarter-finals finishing a point behind Bahrain, even after going toe to toe with much stronger opposition. Bangladesh then took part in the1980 AFC Youth Championship, thanks toSheikh Aslam's goals during qualification. The team finished bottom of their group in the main tournament, having been drawn in a tough group Bangladesh managed earn points againstSouth Korea andQatar.
Bangladesh almost managed to qualify for the1985 AFC Youth Championship, after finishing second in their qualifying group alongside South Korea, the team were knocked out of the qualifiers after losing 1–0 in the semi-finals toChina. Bangladesh ended up losing the 3rd place match to South Korea. Bangladesh did not participate in the next two out of the five Youth Championship qualifiers, before again qualifying in 1996 after defeatingMaldives 8–0 in aggregate. However, in the main tournament, the team disappointed conceding a total of twelve goals in four games, salvaging only a goalless draw againstIran.
After being unfortunate to not qualify for the2000 AFC Youth Championship, the Bangladesh team managed to qualify for the2002 AFC Youth Championship, held in Qatar. Nevertheless, they failed to win a single game during the entirety of the Championship. Since 2002, the Bangladesh U20 team was unable to take part in a major tournament until the launching ofSAFF U-20 Championship, in 2015. The2015 SAFF U-19 Championship which was the tournaments first edition was held inNepal. Rohit Sarkar and Mannaf Rabby scored as Bangladesh defeatedBhutan in their maiden SAFF U-18 Championship game.[6] After advancing to the semi-final as group runner-up, Bangladesh came up short during the penalty shoot-out to India as Rahmat Mia missed the last penalty.[7]
Mahabub Hossain Roksy's team made a remarkable comeback during the opening game of the2017 SAFF U-18 Championship. After falling 3–0 behind, goals fromJafar Iqbal,Rahmat Mia andMahbubur Rahman saw Bangladesh win the game 4–3.[8] However, after losing toNepal 2–1, Bangladesh finished in second place due to head to head results. Roxy's team also showed some promising displays during the2018 AFC U-19 Championship qualifiers (previously known as theAFC Youth Championship) although they failed to qualify once more.[9] Atikuzzaman's owngoal in the 94th minute againstUzbekistan, lead to Bangladesh's only defeat during the qualifiers.[10] Bangladesh reached the final of the2019 SAFF U-18 Championship, only to lose to India 1–2. Bangladesh conceded the first goal within two minutes and although they were down to 10-men afterMohammad Ridoy was sent off after a scuffle with the Indian players, captainYeasin Arafat equalized just before half-time, but the referee sent him off due to his celebrations and Indian strikerRavi Rana scored the winner in stoppage time to seal his sides victory.[11] The teams fate kept on worsening as, they finished bottom of their group during the2020 AFC U-19 Championship qualifiers.
Due to the ongoing domestic league season, Bangladesh team for the2022 SAFF U-20 Championship mainly consisted U-17 players from theBFF Elite Academy and theBangladesh Championship League.[12] The team was impressive throughout the tournament but had similar fate to the previous edition, as they lost to India in the final.[13]
