FA Cup
3rd Round
Pattaya #8 School 1-4 Chonburi
Nong Prue Stadium
Wednesday 26th August, 2009
Don't be fooled by the scoreline, this was a lot closer than 4-1 would suggest. After going in front from our first attack most of us sat back to enjoy the goal feast that would surely follow. However, it didn't materialise and it was the non league side who were creating the better chances.
The two nippy strikers, Wanchai Harvour and Prasopchoke Reanmai, looked lively throughout and certainly caught the eye of most observers. Even when they went two down, the home side always looked dangerous going forward. There was hint of fortune about their goal, a sloppy bit of defending from Suttinun and Suchin which resulted in the former putting through his own goal, but it was well deserved. And it certainly spurred them on as they went in search of an equaliser.
It was only really in the last ten minutes, when the amateurs tired and Chonburi introduced a couple of regular first teamers from the bench, that we looked like the Premier League side. A nervy evening but we're through to the 4th round of the FA Cup and the treble is still very much on. And I doubt that we'll have a more uncomfortable ninety minutes than this.
