Jonathan Cohen Shines with Two Assists in Bangkok United's Season Opener
The first round of the Thai League kicked off today with Israeli player Jonathan Cohen making an immediate impact for his team, Bangkok United. In his 75 minutes on the field, Cohen provided two assists in Bangkok United's decisive 3-1 victory over Sisaket United.
Bangkok United took an early lead in the 15th minute. Cohen's first assist came in the 22nd minute when he set up Viratphom Phomphan, who scored with a long-range shot. Six minutes before halftime, Cohen delivered another excellent assist, a through ball to Phomphan, who then scored Bangkok's third goal.
Sisaket United managed to pull one back just before the break from a penalty kick, and their player Patrick Valverde was subsequently shown a red card. The second half was delayed due to a lightning storm in the area and concluded without further goals, sealing the 3-1 win for Cohen and his teammates in their first match of the season.
