Young Men's Fakirerpul Club earned three massive points in their bid to avoid relegation after handing bottom-placed Chittagong Abahani a 3-2 defeat in their Bangladesh Premier League fixture at the Shahid Barkat Stadium in Gazipur on Saturday.

Ivorian forward Ben Ibrahim Quattara scored a brace as the traditional outfit came back from a goal down to beat the port city side and move to 13 points from 13 matches, 10 clear of Chittagong Abahani and six ahead of Dhaka Wanderers Club, who are second from bottom.

The bottom two sides will go down to Bangladesh Championship League at the end of the season.

Shuvo Raj Bongshi had given the port city side a 33rd-minute lead, but Quattara scored in the next minute before giving his side the lead in the 75th minute. Sayed Hossain Sayem further increased Fakirerpul's lead in stoppage time before Faysal Ahmed reduced the margin for Chittagong Abahani right before the final whistle.

Meanwhile, fourth-placed Rahmatganj MFS and fifth-placed Brothers Union played out a goalless draw in Munshiganj. The draw saw Rahmatganj move to 20 points, followed by Brothers on 19.
