National striker Teerathep 'Leesaw' Winothai broke a goal-scoring drought last weekend when he netted BEC Tero Sasana's opening goal to beat Suphan Buri 5-0 in the Thailand Premier League.
Teerathep, top scorer in the 23rd SEA Games in the Philippines last year, had been struggling to find form recently and had not scored in the first 14 matches of the season.
He admitted it was a great relief to score. "I did not know how long my drought was going to go on for but once I scored my confidence came flooding back and the whole team played well," said Teerathep.
BEC Tero are now in fifth place with 20 points from 15 matches, which is six points behind leaders Tobacco Monopoly who beat Chonburi 3-2.

Bangkok University captured the Thailand Premier League for the first time after beating defending champions Tobacco Monopoly 1-0 in the last match of the Thailand Premier League at their Rangsit campus last Sunday.
They finished one point ahead of runners up Osotsapa and three points clear of BEC Tero Sasana.
Bangkok University got the vital winning goal in the 64th minute through Suriya Domthaisong, although the fourth-placed Tobacco team protested, claiming Suriya had handled the ball.
The victory earned Bangkok University 10 million baht as champions.
At Chulalongkorn ground, Osotspa defeated Krung Thai Bank 1-0 with a goal from Kritsada Kengdem. This was enough for Osotspa to win three million baht for finishing second.
BEC Tero clinched third place by defeating the Provincial Electricity Authority 2-0 with goals from Teerathep Winothai and Pipat Tonkanya who was the top scorer in the league with 12 goals.
BEC Tero won two million baht while the PEA just avoided relegation in 10th place.
In other matches Thai-Honda FC defeated Royal Thai Army 3-2 but it was not enough for Honda to avoid relegation.
The other relegated side was Suphanburi who were beaten 3-2 by Port Authority.
Bangkok Bank took fifth place by beating Chonburi 3-2.
Bangkok University and Osotspa will be playing in the AFC Champions League in the next season.
