Chiangrai defy wet pitch to capture Leaque Cup title

Heavy downpour forced competition to start an hour behind schedule but it did not slow down the Beetles, the 2017 runners-up who lost to Buriram 2-0 in the final.

Chiangrai’s winning goal was produced by Brazilian William Henrique whose attempt was denied by Narit Taweekul but the ball bounced into the net in the 65^th minute.

Chiangrai won the winner’s cheque of Bt5 million while Bangkok Glass had to settle with Bt1 million prize money as runner-up. The four previous Cup winners were Thai Port, Buriram, BEC Tero and Muangthong.
