The remaining 15 minutes of extra time of the Federation Cup final between Abahani Limited and Bashundhara Kings will be played at the Rafiq Uddin Bhuiyan Stadium in Mymensingh on April 29, as the professional league committee of the Bangladesh Football Federation took the decision in a meeting on Wednesday.
The final tied at 1-1 after the stipulated and first half of extra time was declared abandoned due to bad light at the same venue on Tuesday.
The holders and three-time champions Kings went 1-0 up early in the sixth minute of the game when their Argentine forward Juan Lescano headed home the ball following a free kick by defender Saad Uddin.
The 12-time champions Abahani equalised nine minutes later with midfielder Mohammad Ibrahim tapping the ball home from the goalmouth, connecting on a cutback from Nigerian forward Emeka Ogbugh.
Kings were reduced to a 10-man side in the 103rd minute as their midfielder Foysal Ahmed Fahim was sent off with a straight red card.
Soon after the second half began, a thunderstorm swept the stadium, forcing an hour-long delay. Play resumed under poor conditions, with no floodlights and a waterlogged field.
