Hong Kong started brightly, taking the lead through Chun-Ming Wu in the 13th minute against the run of expected play, but Thailand's superior quality began to show once they settled into the game. Thanakrit Chotmuangpak's equalizer just before halftime shifted the momentum decisively, and Thailand never looked back from there. Worawut Noisri's double either side of an unfortunate Yi-Hang Ellison Tsang own goal turned a tight contest into a rout, with Thailand's 13 shots to Hong Kong's 6 reflecting their control despite an even possession split. Jehhanafee Mamah added a fourth late on before Noisri's second sealed a five-goal haul that will sting Hong Kong given they matched Thailand for spells of the game statistically, particularly in corners won.
How entertaining was this match?
