Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Witoon Nalumpoon made the kick off which started today's match. In the 4thth minute of the game Witoon Nalumpoon who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Mengohn's Chusak Boonkumol was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Witoon Nalumpoon fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 6th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Chusak Boonkumol having to interfere. If Witoon Nalumpoon had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 8th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Choosit Pornsakul struck a weak shot in the 11th minute. Chusak Boonkumol didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Huai Chio. In the 13th match minute, Huai Chio was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Bunthit Klongchainan to maneuver through the defense. Anan Mam was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 14th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. Issares Nunchupol charged in rather forcefully in the 17th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Issares Nunchupol the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After 17 played minutes Mengohn got a freekick which was hit by Issares Nunchupol. 21 minutes into the match, Huai Chio's goal looked a bit too open when Pornchai Jenkulprasoot came free, but Ekarat Yansukhon reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After some careless play in the Huai Chio defense, Pornchai Jenkulprasoot kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Ekarat Yansukhon. The Huai Chio fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Ekarat Yansukhon should have stopped the shot. The audience was convinced that Witoon Nalumpoon's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Chusak Boonkumol was relentless in the 28th minute of the game. When Choosit Pornsakul came up free with the goalie in the 31st minute, the Huai Chio fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Choosit Pornsakul couldn't finish the play. 33 minutes into the match, Witoon Nalumpoon had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Chusak Boonkumol. Mengohn's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Witoon Nalumpoon was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-1. After a rather tough play, Mengohn's Tanawat Malaythong got a free kick in the 41st minute. In the 45th minute, Tanawat Malaythong hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.

The wind increased when Pornchai Jenkulprasoot made the kick off in the second half. 56 minutes into the game, Huai Chio's Witoon Nalumpoon nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Chusak Boonkumol made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 1-3. With a little luck, Mengohn's Chusak Boonkumol got control of the ball when Choosit Pornsakul tried to sneak it across the goal line. The supporters of Mengohn booed when Huai Chio was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 65 match minutes in a wonderful position. Wissarut Intamas didn't get a good kick on the ball. Choosit Pornsakul took the ball and in the 70 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Chusak Boonkumol. Chusak Boonkumol dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-4. Mengohn's Chusak Boonkumol played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Witoon Nalumpoon in the 81st minute of play. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Witoon Nalumpoon in the 82nd minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Chusak Boonkumol prevented the ball from getting in the gole. After having played for 89 minutes, Witoon Nalumpoon managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Huai Chio's supporters crossed their fingers, but Witoon Nalumpoon was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. The Huai Chio supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Huai Chio would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
