CHONBURI TAKE OVER TOP SPOT; JETSADA DESTROYS SURATTHANI

BANGKOK (24 March 2009) – Chonburi Bluewave take over at the top of the Thai Futsal League 2009 this week when they thrashed Nonthaburi 9-0 as Jetsada Chudej of Royal Thai Navy single-handedly destroyed former leaders Suratthani Lightning Shrimp 8-5.

With the talent available on their side, Chonburi were in a class of their own as Thai international Panuwat Janta led the goal fest with the opening goal in the fourth minute.

From then on, there was little to trouble Chonburi as they went on a rampage to score at will through Supawut Thueanklang (10th and 26th minute), Keatiyot Chalemkhet (19th), Anucha Munjarern (24th), Kritsada Wongkeaw (27th and 40th), Panomkorn Saisorn (35th) and Ekapong Suratsawang (37th).

In the meantime Suratthani lost their place at the top of the standings when they succumbed to an 8-5 defeat to Royal Thai Navy.

What made the win fabulous for Royal Thai Navy was the fact that six of their goals were scored by a single player – Jetsada Chudej.

Jetsada made sure of the win for Royal Thai Navy with goals in the fifth, 15th, 20th, 24th, 40th and 41st as team mate Wisawat Saeheng added the other goals in the 6th and 23rd minute.

With the defeat, Suratthani have not only lost their place at the top of the table but they have also slipped to third in the standings – behind new leaders Chonburi and second-placed I Am Sport.

I Am Sport improved to second following their close 4-3 win over defending champions Port Authority of Thailand.

SURATTHANI ON THE DOUBLE; CHONBURI KEEP CHASE

BANGKOK (22 March 2009) – Suratthani Lightning Shrimp made it a double in their first two games of the Thai Futsal League 2009 when they grabbed their second full points with a 4-2 win over CAT Telecom.

The Southern outfit had opened their campaign this season with a 9-2 thrashing of Sripatum University the previous week.

But this time round, they were made to work hard for just a 1-0 lead at the break with Tanapol Poomviset scoring the only goal in the first half in the fourth minute.

And the second half proved to be a long-winded exchange before Suratthani slammed their second goal of the afternoon from Anukoon Mini in the 29th minute.

The score stood at 3-0 for Suratthani when Akapol Klomkleang nailed the third goal on 32 minute as CAT Telecom then scored their long-awaited first goal several seconds later off Wirayut Taveegun.

Gilberto Giba then gave CAT Telecom a chance of at least stealing a point with the team’s second goal in the 34th minute but Suratthani were not to be denied their place at the top of the standings when Ekasit Keawkongmuang scored the fourth goal with seconds remaining on the clock.

In the meantime, Chonburi Bluewave kept up the pressure at the top of the table with their second win in as many matches.

The Pattaya-based side slammed Sripatum University 9-3 for the latter to remain anchored at the bottom of the table.

Supawut Thueanklang were on target as early as the first minute before Kritsada Wongkeaw (4th, 29th and 30th minute) and Ekapong Suratsawang (25th ,35th and 39th) each contributed a hat-trick for the well-deserved victory over their hapless opponent.

The other goals for Chonburi were scored by Panomkorn Saisorn in the sixth minute and Anucha Munjarern in the seventh minute.

Sripatum’s goals were scored by Nntawit Wongpibulsuk (15th and 16th minute) and Petch Prasomsri in the 31st minute.

Defending champions Port Authority of Thailand on the other hand picked up their first point of the season with a hard fought 3-3 draw against Rattana Bundit.

With the solitary point from two matches thus far, Port Authority are placed 10th
