Although they created plenty of chances in the first-half, the Ronins were unable to find the back of the net in the first 45 minutes. Unlike their opponents who managed to score three in quick succession.
However, Phuket dealt better with a very wet second half than their opponents, and much to the delight of the 100 or so true all-weather fans that had turned out for the game, a superb hat-trick from Phuket’s top scorer Berlin Ndebi saw the score 3-3 at the final whistle.
