Defeating U23 Brunei, U23 Thailand regained the top spot from U23 Cambodia

U23 Brunei was rated much lower than U23 Thailand before the match. Indeed, this team was under terrible pressure from U23 Thailand. In the 15th minute, Varintorn quickly scored the opening goal for the home team. He received a pass from his teammate and finished close to the goal, opening the score for the home team.

Six minutes later, Pattara jumped high to head the ball to double the gap for U23 Thailand in a set piece situation. With a safe gap, U23 Thailand played slowly to preserve their strength and save energy for the next matches. However, the opportunity continued to come to this team because U23 Brunei was too weak. However, Pattara or Apisit could not take advantage to score the third goal.
