Weekend to forget for Muang Thong

BANGKOK (2 April 2019) – It was a weekend to forget for former champions SCG Muang Thong when they fell to their third defeat of the season as they slumped to a 2-0 loss to Ratchaburi in a Thai League 1 tie.

The loss not only saw the Kirins losing pace with leaders and defending champions Buriram United, it also saw them slipping down to 10^th in the 16-team table.

Bangkok United picked up the full points at home against Muang Thong off goals from Yannick Bolli in the 50^th minute and Kang Soo-il in the 67^th minute.

Buriram on the other hand remained undefeated as they survived a late scare from Pattaya United 3-2.

Korad Wiriyaudomsiri gave Buriram the lead in the 42^nd minute as the champions then capitalised on a brace from Pedro Junior’s penalty in the 65^th minute and then another five minutes later.

But Pattaya came back with two goals through Kyaw Ko Ko in the 80^th minute and Picha U-Tra in the 83^rd minute.

Elsewhere, Nakhon Ratchasima held Bangkok United 1-1, Sukhotai beat Port FC 3-0, Chonburi overcame Prachuap 3-2 and Trat blasting Suphanburi 4-0.

Chainat fell to a 2-1 loss at home to PTT Rayong.
