PHNOM PENH (5 April 2013) – Defending champions Boueng Ket Rubber Field FC maintained a perfect seven out of seven games in the Metfone Cambodia League 2013 when they set aside Phnom Penh Crown FC 3-1 at the National Olympic Stadium.
Momoh Sumaila had given Boueng Ket the lead after just 16 minutes before Chan Vattanaka then grabbed a double with goals in the 38th and 75th minute. Phnom Penh’s only goal off Thierry Bin in the 45th minute failed to ignite the team’s revival as they slumped to their second defeat of the season.
As Boueng Ket picked up another full points from their seventh game of the season for 21 points, Phnom Penh slipped to fourth at the table with just 11 points.
