Army 3 MTU 0 - Report

By all accounts, the game was even until Arthit saw red. We have to dust ourselves off and at least we know that with Robert around, the faults will be recognised and worked on. Also worth noting is that a) Army have improved massively from last season and b) from our two fixtures so far - BG away and Army away - we have the same number of points and goals conceded as we did last season.

Bring on Thai Port at home and get this out of our system.

nb: Tor does well here - he even manages to avoid describing us as 'relegation battlers' - except Miroslov Tose is actually Miroslov Toth.

Army United shocked two-time defending champions Muang Thong United 3-0 in the Thai Premier League yesterday.

Muang Thong were hammered in the second half after they were reduced to 10 men.

Goals from Wanchana Rattana after 50 minutes, Tatree Sreeha (52) and Leandro dos Santos (65) finished off the Kirins, who are still seeking their first win of the season.

The impressive triumph sent Army to top with two wins in as many games.

At Army stadium, Muang Thong, who thrashed Hanoi T&T in the AFC Cup in midweek, dominated for long periods in the first half but could not break Army's gritty defence.

Teerasil Dangda and Miroslav Tose squandered two good chances for Muang Thong as the first half ended in a scoreless draw.

The turning point came in the 49th minute when Arthit Daosawang was sent off after receiving his second yellow card.

Army then piled pressure on the Kirins and went in front in the 50th minute through Wanchana.

Tatree scored the home side's second goal two minutes later and dos Santos put the match beyond any doubt in the 65th minute.
