Coach Bozidar Bandovic placed Luong Xuan Truong in the starting lineup along with many Thai players. Besides the Vietnamese players, Buriram's starting lineup also included three other foreign players, including striker Modibo Maiga (Mali), center back Andres Tunez (Venezuela) and defender Stephan Palla (Philippines).

In the second half, Xuan Truong made a mistake in the home team's goal. His loss of the ball caused his teammate to commit a foul in the penalty area. At the 11m mark, the Nakhon Ratchasima player made a tricky shot, defeating the goalkeeper.Siwarak. More than 10 minutes after this situation, Xuan Truong was allowed to rest. The 1-1 draw was maintained until the end of the match.
