Big-spending Chiang Rai United's woes continued when they lost 3-1 at Chonburi in a Thai League 1 clash on Friday night. Chiang Rai squandered several chances and were punished in the 50th minute when Ivorian forward Fode Diakite equalised with a tap-in. Chiang Rai were still the better side until Renan made it 2-1 for the hosts after 73 minutes. Chiang Rai remained third on 27 points, seven behind leaders SCG Muang Thong United, who travel to lowly Thai Honda today. Meanwhile, Muang Thong midfielder Sarach Yooyen has begun training after a long injury lay-off.
