Bangladesh is crazy about the World Cup trophy

The Dhaka Times Desk Bangladesh is crazy about the World Cup trophy. This trophy has been placed in Hotel Radisson while visiting Bangladesh.


The 36.6 cm tall trophy made of pure gold weighing 196 kg reached Dhaka yesterday. Buff president Kazi Salauddin and other football officials welcomed. The trophy then goes to the President at Bangabhaban. After seeing it at the Ganabhaban, the Prime Minister went to the Radisson Hotel.

The world cup trophy exhibition has started at Hotel Radisson after Bangladesh Football Federation President Kazi Salauddin cut the ribbon and inaugurated the exhibition. This exhibition will continue today. Radio has been crowded with viewers since morning. This trophy of the World Cup has come as a piece of oxygen in the civil life disturbed by political unrest.

A long line was seen at the Radisson Hotel yesterday. Looking at the atmosphere, it seems like a festive mood all around. Camera in someone's hand. Keoba is busy taking pictures on his mobile phone. Keoba is going back to that fantasy realm. The state where Argentina's great Maradona was in the hearts of the world. Many come to see the cup and remember Maradona again. Imagine that one day the cup that Maradona kissed is now within our reach!

Coca Cola, one of FIFA's sponsors and organizers, is not able to show the exhibition at the Bangabandhu Stadium due to security reasons. For this, many formalities have to be cut. Still, people can see this World Cup trophy very closely. Everyone is happy with that.
