Match

The first half of the final was an engrossing affair, with both sides being denied a goal each by VAR.

Port's Pakorn Prempak was sent off in the dying moments following a VAR review.

While Port were comparatively more enterprising in their opponents' half, Ratchaburi looked dangerous on the few counter-attacks they launched.

Pakorn saw his shot sail over the bar early in the match before Bordin Phala was twice denied by Ratchaburi defenders, including one by their skipper Philip Roller in the seventh minute.

Ratchaburi attacks were mostly thwarted by a solid Port defence. Lossemy Karaboue came the closest only to see his attempt being warded off by Port goalkeeper Worawut Srisupha.

Port found the net in the 25th minute but the goal was scratched off the scoresheet following a VAR intervention.

Sergio Suarez picked up a through pass to race into the box and slide the ball across from the right to Sumanya Purisay to fire it home.

However, a consultation with the referee on TV revealed that Suarez had been in an off-side position when he took the pass from Pakorn, who was impressive in his role as a playmaker for the Khlong Toei-based club.

Then it was Ratchaburi's turn to become a victim of VAR's sharp eye.

Worawut fumbled a Steeven Langil cross from the left and Karaboue was quick to pounce on the mistake by Port's custodian to tap it into the net and kick-start celebrations from the Ratchaburi fans.

However, the match referee turned to the VAR officials as before the ball had sailed on to Langil on the left flank, Karaboue had skidded into Worawut and it was deemed a foul.
