'thong drew 2-2 with Chai Nat FC in a game that saw Kawin Thamasatchanan return to competition in the second half.
This was the only good news however in a game that MTU fans were very critical of. Coach Carlos is already experiencing criticism from a group of fans not known for being harsh.
Carlos has the chance to quickly redeem himself in the next game however as the serious business now begins - an ACL qualifier away to Sriwicha (Indonesia) on Feb 12th.
Uh-oh. This won't stop me from getting my season tickets. But one can't help but wonder if a draw to a newly promoted Division 1 team isn't an omen of a long season ahead. (And not just because of the schedule.)

Here are the highlights from the Chai Nat game:
