Thai 'war elephants' fly high, impress Cambodia

The Asean Championship, commonly known as the AFF Cup, opened with a match between Cambodia and Malaysia in Group A. With the support of a large number of fans at the Olympic Stadium, the Cambodian players played with high spirits and determination, which was shown in every move.

Timor Leste players cannot stop the power of the "war elephants" of Thailand

Although Malaysia took the lead, Cambodia surprisingly equalized 1-1. The neighboring team Vietnam also caused a shock when they took the lead against the "tigers" Malaysia. The match ended with a score of 2-2, but the 1 point earned was a remarkable success for Cambodia, thereby helping them to have a "stable" position on the rankings.

In the remaining match of Group A held on the same day at Hang Day Stadium, the Timor Leste team could not surprise the defending champion Thailand. The "War Elephants" showed their No. 1 position in Southeast Asian football when they created an effective and overwhelming attacking game. The match was decided in the first half when the Thai team created a 4-goal gap. In the second half, the Thai team scored 6 more goals to have a "destructive" 10-0 victory over Timor Leste.
