2023-01-11 14:07
Going into the game with a narrow 1-0 defeat in Kuala Lumpur , War Elephants knew they needed a strong performance to make it to the AFF Cup final again, so they thrashed their opponents 3-0 in Bangkok.
As they often do, Thailand dominated the early stages while Malaysia defended deep and looked to take the pressure. The hosts got their first chance in the 17th minute when Boldin 's shot was blocked by goalkeeper Sihan Hazimi after Tirasin Dangda went down .
Just two minutes later, Thirathon Boonmatan delivered a perfect cross from the left for Tirasin Dangda to score his sixth goal of the tournament from the edge of the six-yard box. The sea of blue surrounding the stadium burst into ecstasy as the game was tied on aggregate.
Malaysia made a rare attack in the 37th minute when Darren Locke headed home from the left, flicking Hakeem Hassan's cross straight into goalkeeper Kempen .

However, Thailand scored the next goal shortly after half-time. Sufanan Brillat played a through ball to Ekanit Panya, whose perfect drop-back allowed Boldin to play freely in the box. He didn't need a second invitation, firing a composed shot into the far corner from 12 yards out.
Despite Safawi Rashid's attempt to grab an all-important goal, Malaysia 's defense was quickly breached again as Su Fanan 's low cross from the right was hit by Adisak . Despite his initial effort coming from the post, the striker was the quickest to get up and strike for his second of the game.
Following the dominating display, Thailand will now travel to Hanoi to take on Vietnam in the first leg of the final at the My Dinh National Stadium on Friday.
