Spectators: 6766 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1766, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Weerapon Kongprasert kicked off to start the match. Sunet Duangnak made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Sujin Sanghirun in the 5th minute of play. The supporters of Nong Phai booed when Ladyboy was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 6 match minutes in a wonderful position. Sompoth Weerawat didn't get a good kick on the ball. 9 minutes into the match, Nong Phai's goal looked a bit too open when Sompoth Weerawat came free, but Sunet Duangnak reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 10 minutes into the match, Sujin Sanghirun had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Sunet Duangnak. Nong Phai's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Sujin Sanghirun was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. In the 14th minute, Sujin Sanghirun left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Ladyboy fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-2.

Kiattipong Khinthong showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Chartchai Takasem in the 57th minute of the match.

Sujin Sanghirun was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 84th minute. Ladyboy's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Theraphat Jamroen during the 85th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. Theraphat Jamroen kicked well hit freekick during the 85th minute of the match.
