Kyrgyz Republic U20 vs Bahrain U20

Kyrgyzstan U20 put in a commanding performance in Antalya, Turkey, beating Bahrain U20 4-0 in a friendly on June 3. The result was never in doubt after the Central Asian side made a blistering start at the Isparta Stadium. A. Isakov set the tone by opening the scoring in just the 6th minute. A. Muratbekov made it 2-0 in the 34th minute, and the game was comfortably settled by half-time. Isakov returned after the break to grab his second in the 59th minute, before A. Tagaev wrapped things up with a neat late finish in the 87th minute. The victory keeps Kyrgyzstan U20 in strong form as they build towards the AFC U-20 Asian Cup qualification tournament, which they are set to host in Bishkek later this year. For Bahrain U20, it is a fourth loss in five recent outings — a clear sign there is still plenty to work on before competitive fixtures arrive.
