Bashundhara Kings have won the AFC Cup — Asian football's second most prestigious club trophy — defeating Iran's Persepolis FC 3-2 in a pulsating final played before a sell-out 80,000 crowd at the Bangabandhu National Stadium.

Historic Achievement
The triumph is the greatest in Bangladeshi club football history. Prime Minister congratulated the team from a state visit abroad, and the government announced a BDT 10 crore reward for the squad.
