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:

Chankasem or Front Palace National Museum Ayutthaya.
Chankasem Palace was built during the reign of King Maha Thammaraja, the 17th King of the Kingdom of Ayutthaya. During the reign of King Naresuan the Great the Palace became his permanent residence.

It has been renovated and reopened as a museum open to the public on Wednesdays through Sundays from 9.00 a.m. to 4.00 p.m.

Wat Suan Luang Khangkhao, whose name translates as the Monastery of the Royal Garden of the Bat (or Flying Foxes), is a restored temple ruin located on Ayutthaya’s historic city island. It stands on the grounds of what is now Phranakhon Si Ayutthaya Rajabhat University and near the former course of Khlong Chakrai Noi, in the immediate vicinity of the ruins of Wat Borom Phuttharam and Wat Singharam.
The surrounding area once formed part of the royal residence and grounds associated with King Phetracha (reigned 1688–1703). It is generally accepted that the locality had earlier been a royal park or garden that sheltered large numbers of bats, which accounts for the temple’s distinctive name.
No definitive record survives of who founded the monastery or the precise year of its construction. Architectural evidence, however, points toward the late Ayutthaya period, possibly during or shortly after the reign of King Narai (1656–1688) or in the time of King Phetracha, not long after the nearby Wat ...
Or Tor Kor Market (known in Thai as ตลาด อ.ต.ก. or the Marketing Organization for Farmers Market) sits directly opposite Chatuchak Weekend Market in Bangkok’s Chatuchak district, right next to Kamphaeng Phet MRT station.
The market opened in 1974 and is run by the Marketing Organization for Farmers, a state enterprise under Thailand’s Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives. It was created to give farmers a direct, organized outlet for selling high-quality agricultural products to the public.
Over the decades it has earned a reputation as one of Bangkok’s cleanest and most premium fresh markets, standing out from the more chaotic traditional markets with its orderly stalls, good refrigeration, bright lighting, and strong emphasis on hygiene. In 2017 CNN ranked it among the world’s top ten fresh markets (sometimes cited as fourth). It is especially famous for premium seasonal fruits such as durian and mango, along with excellent vegetables, seafood, meat, dried goods, herbs,...
