Sisaket United 5-1 Songkhla FC – Dominant Display Propels Sisaket Up the Table

Sisaket United produced a statement performance at the Sri Nakhon Stadium, demolishing Songkhla FC 5-1 in a comprehensive victory that showcased their attacking firepower. The result is a major boost for the home side as they push for a promotion playoff spot.

Match Summary

From the opening whistle, Sisaket United were on the front foot. Their high press disrupted Songkhla’s buildup, and the goals flowed freely. The match was effectively decided within the first half, with the hosts racing to a 3-0 lead by the 35th minute. A stunning long-range strike in the 18th minute set the tone, followed by two quick-fire goals from set pieces. Songkhla pulled one back just before halftime with a well-worked corner of their own, but it proved to be only a consolation.

Second Half – Sisaket Rampant

There was no let-up after the break. Sisaket added two more goals in the second half, the first a clinical counter-attack in the 55th minute, and the fourth a header from a free-kick in the 72nd minute. Songkhla’s defense was repeatedly caught out of position, and only outstanding saves from their goalkeeper prevented the scoreline from being even more emphatic. The visitors managed to create a few half-chances but lacked the composure to finish.

Key Performers

• Sisaket United’s No. 9 scored a brace and assisted another, causing havoc in the Songkhla box.
• The home midfield trio controlled possession with over 60% of the ball and limited Songkhla to long-range efforts.

Table Implications

The win lifts Sisaket United to 6th place with 42 points, firmly in the promotion playoff race. Songkhla FC, meanwhile, remains in 15th place with 22 points, deep in the relegation zone. The five-goal haul also boosts Sisaket’s goal difference, which could be crucial in a tightly packed top half of the table.
