Port FC turned PAT Stadium into a fortress Saturday afternoon, delivering an 8-0 demolition of Kanchanaburi in one of the most lopsided results of the young Thai League 1 season. From the opening whistle, Port FC imposed their will, capitalizing on both clinical finishing and an early red card that left their opponents with no answers.

The rout began in the 10th minute, when Lucas Tocantins finished coolly after a sharp assist from B. Perea, setting the tone for a relentless afternoon. Kanchanaburi’s hopes of mounting a comeback were dashed just 12 minutes later, as defender G. Rodrigues was shown a straight red card for a reckless challenge, reducing the visitors to ten men and opening the floodgates for Port’s attack.

Just before halftime, S. Bureerat doubled the lead, slotting home after being teed up by P. Chamratsamee at the end of a sweeping move. The second half saw Port FC fully shift into high gear. P. Chamratsamee grabbed a brilliant brace—his first coming in the 62nd via a decisive cross from Perea, and his second just four minutes later after a clever linkup with substitute Kaka Mendes.

With Kanchanaburi reeling, Matheus Pato entered the scoresheet in the 75th minute off a well-weighted pass from A. Mangkualam. The onslaught did not ease, as T. Poeiphimai struck twice in the closing stages—first in the 79th, latching on to Bureerat’s service, and again in the 86th, again courtesy of Bureerat’s creativity. Pato added his second in the 83rd, capping a dominant display from both the Brazilian forward and Port’s offensive unit.

The match featured a flurry of disciplinary action, with three Port FC players booked and Kanchanaburi’s numerical disadvantage a theme throughout. An additional Port goal was ruled out for offside in the 71st minute—a rare bright spot for the beleaguered Kanchanaburi backline, which was otherwise powerless to halt the barrage.

Port manager Sarawut Treephan will be thrilled with the performance, as the result sends a resounding message to the league about his side’s attacking intent and depth. The contributions came from all over the pitch: Perea’s vision orchestrated multiple goals, Bureerat was involved in both scoring and creating, and Chamratsamee’s brace confirmed him as a rising star to watch.

Conversely, Kanchanaburi are left to regroup after a chastening defeat that exposed defensive frailties and left questions about squad discipline. The size of the loss may have ramifications for goal difference in a tight table, while Port’s emphatic win could be the spark for a sustained climb up the standings.

For supporters, this was an unforgettable afternoon showcasing attacking football at its finest on the banks of the Chao Phraya, with Port FC firmly planting their flag as a side to be reckoned with in the 2025 campaign.
