Although they were rated somewhat lower, the Thai Olympic players competed with confidence and played fairly with the Bahrain Olympic team.
The team from the Golden Temple had a few notable plays in the first half but were not sharp enough to convert into goals.

The Thai Olympics (light colored shirts) escaped the Bahrain Olympics.
On the other side of the front line, although Bahrain Olympic did not dominate their opponents, they made good use of the opportunity created.
Starting from a good attack at the end of the first half, goalkeeper Siriwat could only block the first shot but could not save the “War Elephant” from Abdulkarim’s kick in the penalty area.
After the break, the Thai Olympic players pushed their team higher to put pressure on them to find an equalizer.

A few opportunities were created by the Golden Temple team but they could not take advantage. A typical example is Yotsakon’s unbelievable miss in the 85th minute when he finished the ball “licking” the edge of the crossbar of Bahrain’s Olympic goal.
It was thought that the Thai Olympic Games would be left empty-handed in the opening match of ASIAD 19, but in the 5th minute of injury time, Purachet skillfully dribbled the ball and then made a beautiful curling shot from outside the penalty area brought home 1 valuable point.
