Buriram moved to within one game of retaining their title with an emphatic 3-0 win at bitter rivals Muang Thong. This was the game that could have given Bangkok United the chance to close the gap at the top but frankly, it was a game Buriram controlled from start to finish. Obviously, Muang Thong…

Buriram’s march towards a sixth title continued as they deepened Sukhothai’s relegation worries with four outstanding strikes. However, don’t be fooled by the scoreline as the visitors played their part in a fast, open game which could easily have ended 8-4. In the early stages Buriram’s defence was all over the place as the…

A goal in either half by Diogo saw Buriram ease to another three points which brings retaining the title a step closer. This was always going to be one of the toughest hurdles to cross but Buriram were in control for much of the game, particularly in the second-half. Once again, it was Diogo who…

Buriram had to dig deep to overcome a determined if somewhat over-physical Chiang Rai side. They had to get over the disappointment of a first minute penalty being overturned by VAR (we’ll discuss that later) and they also had to keep their heads and not get involved in a war of attrition. The visitors are…

Buriram will meet Bangkok Glass in the League Cup semi-final on Wednesday, September 19, 7pm at the Boonyachinda Stadium (Police Tero) in Bangkok. The FA Cup semi-final is on Wednesday September 26 against Sisaket 7pm.

Buriram survived a nervy opening before they settled the tie with three second-half goals. They fell behind with a freak Pansa own-goal but Patino scored his first goal since his return to level things up. The home side dominated the second-half with Diogo again in imperious form. Two more goals for the Brazilian along with…

Buriram had to settle for a point in an entertaining 2-2 draw at Thai Port after leading 2-0. However, a dreadful decision by the referee and slack defending allowed the home side back into the game. The champions still had enough chances to win easily but a combination of poor finishing and bad luck saw…

Buriram eased into the FA Cup Semi-finals with a comfortable 3-1 victory at Thai Port. They were helped by two defensive howlers in the first-half which gave them a 3-0 interval lead. Although Port pulled a goal back, Buriram never really looked to be in danger of a home side comeback. After a steady opening,…

Buriram managed to emerge with three points from a dreadful game at home to relegation-threatened Suphanburi. Both sides were guilty of giving away far too many unnecessary free-kicks, though the visitors like most before them, made Diogo a target. There was simply no flow to the game as the referee’s whistle became monotonous and to…

Buriram made heavy weather of seeing off Division 4 minnows Nakhon Pathom with Supachok’s extra-time strike giving the champions a 2-1 victory. It was a very disappointing performance by Buriram who lacked any kind of game plan and they appeared to think that simply turning up would be sufficient. Diogo was quite rightly rested but…
