Going through the game’s progress, the fact that Thailand U23 is the team to take the initiative is in the predictions of many people. Right in the 4th minute, midfielder Woorachit opened the scoring with a dangerous free-kick that blocked the goalkeeper’s hand from Cambodia U23.

Entering the second half, the match was not much different from the first half, Thailand U23 still created considerable pressure on the Cambodian U23 side. If there was no vertical post and the crossbar refused, about the first 15 minutes of the second half the score would have been 6-0 for Thailand U23.

But in the end, whatever comes must come when the substitute striker Gustavsson has scored the 4th goal for Thailand U23 after a neat finish in the penalty area.

In the last minutes of the match, the heavy rain affected many professional qualities of the match. In the 89th minute, the goal to make the score 5-0 was set by striker Gustavsson for Thailand U23, after an accretion kick right next to Cambodia U23’s goal.

Thus, with the 2nd consecutive victory at this year’s SEA Games, Coach Polking’s army has regained its inherent form. However, they also could not win the top position when the match a few hours ago, U23 Malaysia had a draw against Singapore U23, thereby still standing at the top of the table with 7 points.

If the situation of Group B does not have any surprises, U23 Thailand is likely to meet the host U23 Vietnam in the semi-finals of this year’s SEA Games.
