Dhaka, Oct 30 - Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus congratulated the Bangladesh national women's football team for clinching the title of the SAFF championship in Nepal on Wednesday.

"Great achievement of our women football team," he said in a statement.

"I am proud of you. The whole nation is proud of you. Congratulations to all the players who brought us this glory," Prof Yunus said.
