John Biwott didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Tha Khun. Tha Khun's Sukit Jamparueng proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 16th minute of the match, managed to save Tha Khun from getting a goal against them. With a little luck, Tha Khun's Sukit Jamparueng got control of the ball when Okot Keino tried to sneak it across the goal line.

John Biwott was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. After having played for 44 minutes, Chainarong Kinetic managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Tha Khun's supporters crossed their fingers, but Chainarong Kinetic was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal.
