Port FC sit in 3rd place, just two points behind Ratchaburi and with a game in hand over several teams above them. A win tonight would keep their AFC Champions League Two qualification hopes firmly alive and apply pressure on the top two.
Port FC, the league’s most in-form home side in recent weeks, welcomed bottom-half Lamphun Warrior looking to bounce back strongly after a goalless draw at Muangthong United last weekend. The home side boasted a solid defensive record (only 19 goals conceded all season) and dangerous attacking options led by Brazilian forward Kaká Mendes and winger Bordin Phala.
Lamphun, fighting to stay clear of the relegation zone, arrived with one of the league’s poorest away records and had struggled to score consistently on the road. Port dominated possession from the start and wasted no time breaking the deadlock.
The match was effectively over inside the first 23 minutes as Port raced into a commanding three-goal lead:

The Holy Trinity of St. Sergius refers to the Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, also known as the Holy Trinity-St. Sergius Lavra. This is the most important monastery in the Russian Orthodox Church and serves as one of the greatest spiritual centers of Russian Orthodoxy.
Located in Sergiev Posad, about seventy kilometers northeast of Moscow, the lavra was founded around 1337 by St. Sergius of Radonezh, one of Russia’s most beloved saints, together with his brother Stephen.
St. Sergius settled in the remote forest wilderness on Makovets Hill, where the brothers built a small wooden cell and a simple chapel dedicated to the Holy Trinity. As news of Sergius’s ascetic life and spiritual wisdom spread, disciples began to gather around him. The community gradually grew into a full monastery that adopted a communal monastic rule. Sergius became its first abbot, and the dedication to the Life-Giving Trinity reflected his profound emphasis on unity, love, and harmony, both in monastic life and in the broader ...
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier stands as one of Moscow’s most solemn and revered war memorials. Located in the picturesque Alexander Garden right beside the western Kremlin wall, near Manege Square and Red Square, it honors the millions of Soviet soldiers who perished during the Great Patriotic War (1941–1945).
The memorial was created after the remains of an unidentified Soviet soldier, killed in December 1941 during the Battle of Moscow, were exhumed from a mass grave near Zelenograd, the closest point German forces advanced toward the capital. These remains were reburied with full military honors on December 3, 1966.
The monument was officially unveiled on May 8, 1967, on the eve of Victory Day celebrations marking the 25th anniversary of the Soviet victory in the Battle of Moscow.
The Eternal Flame at the site was lit with a torch brought from the Field of Mars in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) and has burned almost continuously ever since.

The Spaso-Preobrazhensky Cathedral (Cathedral of the Transfiguration of the Lord, also known as the Cathedral of the Transfiguration of the Saviour) served as the majestic focal point and destination for Vladivostok’s main Orthodox Easter celebrations. This grand cathedral, the largest in Primorsky Krai, stands prominently on the central square overlooking Golden Horn Bay, its pale “crème brûlée” walls and golden onion domes rising 67 meters into the sky in a striking Russian-Byzantine style inspired by the works of architect Konstantin Ton.
The cathedral’s location holds deep historical significance: it marks the very spot where, in 1860, the first Russian military post that would become Vladivostok was established, soon followed by a small wooden chapel. Construction of the modern cathedral began around 2011 after the site was consecrated in 2000, and it was fully completed and consecrated only in September 2023, making it a relatively new yet already beloved spiritual heart of the...
