The headline result was PT Satun’s 3–0 win over Muangthong United. After beating Songkhla in the previous round, Satun look increasingly comfortable at this level.
Songkhla were the only side to win on the road, and they did it emphatically. Their 3–0 victory at Police Tero was impressive, particularly against a side that began the season among the early pace-setters.
The promoted teams had a very satisfactory midweek:
That is a strong return from three difficult fixtures. Satun were the outstanding performers, but all three clubs showed that they belong in Thai League 2.
Chiangmai United’s 3–1 home win over Khon Kaen United was another important result. They took control with a brace before half time and finished strongly, while Khon Kaen suffered their first defeat of the campaign.
Kasetsart’s difficult start continued with a 2–0 defeat at Chanthaburi. They remain without a point after three matches, while Chanthaburi finally picked up their first win.
There were some fabulous goals in midweek - great strikes from Tanapat (CMU) and Apisit (Nongbua); fabulous solo efforts from Amadou (Chanthaburi) and Mauricio Cortes (Satun), a really smart finish from Chitchanok (Mahasarakham) and an outrageous goal from Ratthaphum (Loei).
