Report from AFC Website - www.the-afc.com
HUE – Iran geared up for the AFC U-19 Championship as they came from one down to record a morale-boosting 2-1 win over fellow qualifiers Thailand in the final of the Thanh Nien Cup.
After a goalless first-half the Thais opened the scoring in the 50th minute through Ekkachai Rittiphan but their lead was short-lived as Mohsen Mosalam drew Iran level from the penalty spot seven minutes later.
The Thais were handed the numerical advantage in the 65th minute when Reza Rish Esfahani was sent off for a second bookable offence but despite playing the remainder of the match with a man less it was Iran that took the title thanks to a last gasp winner from Jalal Ali Mohammadi, his third of the campaign.
Hosts Vietnam finished third after edging ASEAN rivals Singapore 1-0.
Well done for coming second

TPL Results - 27th Sept
Domestic League - Round 28 Results
Samut Songkhram 2 - 1 Coke Bangpra
Chula-Sinthana 2 - 2 Krung Thai Bank
Customs Department 2 - 1 Tobacco Monopoly
BEC Tero Sasana 1 - 0 PEA
Nakhon Pathom 1 - 2 Osotspa M-150
Bangkok Bank 1 - 1 Bangkok University
Chonburi FC 0 - 0 Port Authority
TOT 0 - 0 Royal Thai Army
Chonburi go top on goal difference from PEA, 2 games left to play. I expected this to happy, but to be honest i thought it would have been on points and not goal difference, if i'm correct bot teams have same head to head record, so at the moment it is 3 goals that seperate them.
Army are all but relegated, must win 2 out of 2 and score about 10 goals to stay up.
Port Authority live to fight another week. I'd like to see them stay up, but if they do, it looks like at the expense of Bangkok Bank, whom to be honest, bring a bit of history to the league, so again wouldn't really like to see them go. But good to see PAT draw with Chonburi and show that every team, no matter where they are will fight for points.
Good to see Customs win, although already doomed, they are still playing ball.
To be honest, the team i would like to be seen crowned champions are BEC, they (and Chula) are the only teams to have scored goals this year. Its a bit of a let down that the winners will be the ones that have scored 32 and 30 goals each in 28 games played so far - not really attacking football!

International Thanh Nien Cup
Thailand's Under 19 side are currently in action, in the Under 21 event, International Thanh Nien Cup currently being held in Vietnam.
So far they have smashed aside Malaysia 4-1 in their opening game and then beat the hosts Vietnam 2-1 to seal a semi-final matchup against our old foes Singapore. Should be a cracker, the game is set to be played today.

Scoring charts
Although, i don't really bother to much with the art of goalscoring, generally i have a lack of interest in who's scored the most goals. But one thing i have noticed, new KTB striker, the Nigerian Samuel has notched a few in since he arrived.
Going on baisc Thai reports, he could just be the next big thing! So keep an eye out for the lad. Full name Ajayi Gdenga Samuel.
He arrived earlier in the year from Cambodian outfit Phom Penh after a decent Singapore Cup game.

Due to time constraints and work load.
This blog will be on hold for a while.
I will still post in various forums but will lack the time to put any effort into this blog.
You can still PM me if you want to ask any questions, but any Thai football updates will not be posted here for the foreseeable future.

Rattana Bundit FC 1 - 1 Mueang Thong NongJork United
Royal Thai Navy FC 1 - 0 PTT FC
Mueang need 1 point to confirm their promotion, this will be done over the next 3 matchdays, and a deserved promotion indeed. It also looks more thna likely that they will be joined by Sriracha who also have slight chance of winning the championship. But for me, thats far beyond them, with them having 4 games remaining.
Raj-Vitho have confirmed their relegation the the 2nd Division, and more than likely will be joined by Phitsanulok and Nakhon Sawan over the next week or so.

Druryfire Comment
It was all action at the bottom of the tables today. Royal Thai Army are really trying hard to pull themselves out of the relegation zone, time will tell if they have left it too late. They certainly had to beat Port Authority, just to keep them in their with them.
In Division One, it seemed like everyone at the bottom picked up points. Again, it seems to late for the likes of Phitsanulok, but a welcome win, none the less.
On a bigger note, Mueng now just need one more point to confirm promotion, they have lead the way all along and seem capable of winning the championship from Sriracha. It would appear that Sriracha themselves have pulled clear to get a hold of 2nd spot, now just interesting to see who can take the remaining promotion place with 5 games to spare for the Police and Navy whom drew with each other today.
Songkhla claim the runners up spot in Division 2 Group A beating Narathiwat on head to head record (Win and draw). Again congratulations to the Deep South sides, and puts a smile on my face as another team from outside the central areas moves up a level.
