Buriram United 5–0 Ayutthaya United
Thai FA Cup – 17 May 2026

Buriram United produced a ruthless attacking display to sweep aside Ayutthaya United 5‑0 in the Thai FA Cup fourth round. The reigning Thai League champions showed why they are favourites for domestic silverware, advancing with style and efficiency.

First‑Half Blitz

The match was effectively decided inside the opening 35 minutes. Buriram’s front three were in irresistible form. Supachai Jaided opened the scoring in the 9th minute, cutting inside from the left and curling a shot into the far corner. Ten minutes later, Boli Job doubled the lead with a powerful header from a corner. Ayutthaya’s defence looked disorganised, and Buriram capitalised again just before the half‑hour mark when Gustavo volleyed home from a cross.

Second‑Half Carnage

Ayutthaya United tried to reorganise at half‑time, but Buriram’s intensity never dropped. The fourth goal came in the 52nd minute, a composed finish from Rattanakorn Maikami after a neat one‑two. The scoring was completed by substitute Piyachart Srimarueang in the 78th minute, who lashed home from the edge of the box. Ayutthaya’s best chance came from a long‑range effort that was comfortably saved by Buriram goalkeeper Siwarak Tedsungnoen.
