Thailand Dominates Pakistan in FIFA ASEAN Cup Opener

Thailand showcased their strength in their opening match against Pakistan in the FIFA ASEAN Cup 2026, winning decisively with a score of 4-0. Despite resting some of their star players, including Supachok and Chanathip, Thailand dominated the game from the start.

Under the guidance of Coach Hudson, Thailand applied early pressure, creating several scoring opportunities. Although Pakistan's defense held firm initially, they struggled to mount effective counterattacks. The breakthrough came in the 31st minute when Teerasak scored after a series of saves from the Pakistani goalkeeper. This goal relieved the pressure on the Thai team and set the tone for the rest of the match.

Just before halftime, in the 41st minute, Soonsup-Bell doubled Thailand's lead with a well-placed shot following a clever assist from Ratree. Teerasak almost added another goal shortly after, but it was ruled offside. As the second half began, Pakistan attempted to push forward, but their efforts were met with a solid Thai defense.

Thailand regained control of the match after introducing Supachok and Supachai. Teerasak continued to shine, scoring his second goal in the 63rd minute with a stunning volley from a tight angle. He capped off his impressive performance with a third goal in the 84th minute, showcasing his skill in a one-on-one situation with the goalkeeper.

The final whistle confirmed Thailand's emphatic 4-0 victory over Pakistan, with goals from Teerasak (31', 63', 84') and Soonsup-Bell (41'). This match sets a positive tone for Thailand as they look forward to their upcoming fixtures in the tournament.
