Bangladesh Under-21 Hockey team made a frustrating start in the 6th Men's Junior Asia Cup Hockey conceding a humiliating 8-0 goals defeat to strong South Korea in the inaugural match at Hyderabad in India Friday, reports UNB.

The winners led the 1st half 4-0.

Bangladesh have a dismal record against South Korea. Earlier, in the previous encounters, Bangladesh conceded defeat on all occasions except a draw.

Bangladesh, placed in Group B with South Korea, Pakistan and Oman, will play their 2nd group match against Oman on Sunday at 3 pm and the 3rd match against Pakistan on July 14.
