Jonathan Cohen Shines in Thai League Debut with Two Assists

Israeli attacking midfielder Jonathan Cohen has made a strong start to his tenure in the Thai League with Bangkok United. In his debut match during the league's opening round, Cohen provided two crucial assists, contributing to his team's decisive 3-1 victory over Sisaket.

Bangkok United scored all their goals between the 15th and 39th minutes. Cohen's first assist came in the 22nd minute, a short pass to Worapong Pansa, who scored into the net. Later, in the 39th minute, Cohen delivered a brilliant through ball to Pansa again, setting up the team's third goal. Sisaket managed to pull one back before halftime, making the score 3-1.

Cohen, who previously played for Hapoel Petah Tikva in the Israeli Premier League last season without making a significant impact, played 75 minutes in his encouraging Thai debut.
