“It was our home match, we really wanted to win. We wanted the victory, but we couldn’t get it, so of course there’s some disappointment there,” said Roh.“The players who came on showed great effort until the very end and I’m grateful for the way they kept pushing and worked hard throughout.
“We feel a responsibility to give something back and although we didn’t get the win today, I appreciate the players for giving everything they had.”

Buriram head coach Mark Jackson also highlighted his side’s disciplined display.
“We’re grateful for the point but we always try to go for the three points. We knew we had to come here, get ourselves organised, keep our structure and maintain our discipline. I think the players executed that very well,” said Jackson.

“We put more pressure on the ball in the second half. In the end, we created one big chance late on and, on another day, we would have finish ed that and maybe come away with a 1-0 win.
“But overall, we have to be satisfied with the point. It’s a very difficult place to come and that’s another point on the board for us.”
