AFC Champions League - Matchday 5

Results:

Chonburi 0 - 2 Gamba Osaka
Kashima Antlers 8 - 1 Krung Thai Bank

Well, another year, and the glory of reaching the Quarter-Finals stage for Thai clubs is over.

Plucky Chonburi met their match in Gamba, Chonburi must now see if they can hold onto 2nd spot and show some pride for Thailand.

KTB on the other hand have shown that the premier competition in Asia is way to big for our domestic runners up. Maybe, if we are lucky, could keep one team in the Pro Legaue and send our runners up into the AFC Cup where we might have a bit more luck, if only we were t otake it seriously.

So, today, 2 matches and 2 defeats, both against Japanese opposition, possibly the best league in Asia now and for the forseeable future.

KTB, what can you say about them, 9-1 and 8-1 loss against Kashima, surely the lads don't give up that easily??? Looks that way, or just outclassed?

Chonburi, will have another stab, but it all depends on FAT really.

So, we have now played 12 games against Japanese opposition and have never won, our best results being in 2006 and this year when Bangkok University and Chonburi picked up away points.

We have now scored a magical 10 goals in 12 games, so we know we can find the net against Japanese teams, but the defence, the record stands are conceded 42.


A disapointing day, the dream for Chonburi lasted until matchday 5, which really, in itself was much longer than i ever thought, so its good to be disapointed as i never really saw them staying in touch for this long. Lets hope a good last game in Melbourne and seal that 2nd spot.


Our best ever season in the Champions League was in 2002/03 when BEC went to the final, they won 13 points that year, this year we are stuck on 9, can this be the year that that tally is finally overtaken with 6 points left to play for??

Number One Cup - Vietnam

Thailand Under 19's defeated Laos 3-2 on Monday night. They next go on to play Vietnam who drew earlier in the day against Malaysia.

Good weekend for BEC, Suphanburi, Mueng Nong Jork United especially.

Division 2 Group B is still lacking a few goals but Group A see's a fair few flying in still.

Phitsanulok seem destined for Division 2 next year along with Royal Thai Army who seem destined for Division One.

This week will see Chonburi and Krung Thai Bank take on the elite in the Champions Legaue.

We have the Under 19 team taking part in the Number One Cup in Vietnam.

The TPL will now go into hibernation until the 28th June, but we still have Divisions 1 and 2 taking place aswell as the Singapore Cup which should be interesting to see how our teams get on.

Thailand U-19's go for Glory in Vietnam

Thailand U-19's are due to start a tournement in Vietnam on Monday.

The competition has been unveiled as The Number One cup.

Thailand shall come across the hosts Vietnam and other ASEAN neighbours Laos and Malaysia.

Laos, although not reknowned on the Asian scene for their football have produced a number of decent youth sides in the past. The full national team tends to struggle due to a lack of a domestic league. Youth football, you could say is their holly grail.

Match schedule shall be released shortly.

The action kicks off this Monday in Hanoi

Can anyone start to pull away in Divisions 2, Group A and B?

Can Bangkok Bravo pick up a much needed victory?
