Suphanburi Football!

As luck would have it, our training facility in Suphanburi ended up being about 30 yards from the city's Thailand Premier League's football (soccer) stadium. We are able to catch a game about once a week just as we finish up our afternoon practice.
I had a chance to document some of the highlights from last weeks game . . .



This well placed header went straight to Suphanburi's striker's foot and just missed it's target (the back of the net).


Suphanburi's defense flinches as a penalty shot is fired.


Airborn battle for posession.


A sweet goal attempt off the forward's forhead.






A local football shop owner who played for Switzerland as a child told me that "Thailand football . . . not as good", but we get a kick out of checking it out anyways. Come back next time for our trip to the U.S.!!
