Thailand U23 vs Korea Republic U23

South Korea U23 produced a sharp second-half comeback to beat Thailand U23 3-2 in a June FIFA Day friendly at Pathum Thani Stadium on Saturday. The hosts had looked firmly in control at the break with a 2-1 lead, making the visitors' turnaround all the more eye-catching. Chanapach Buaphan gave Thailand a dream start in the 4th minute, but Seong-Jin Kang pulled South Korea level at the 10th. Theekawin Chansri restored the home advantage in the 16th minute, and that slender lead held heading into half-time. The second half, however, belonged entirely to the Koreans, who struck twice — at the 50th and 79th minutes — to complete the comeback. For South Korea U23, the victory adds confidence ahead of their upcoming AFC U23 qualification campaign. Thailand U23 will rue a bright opening half that ultimately counted for nothing — the result their second friendly of the June window after drawing 1-1 with Kyrgyzstan three days earlier.
