Thailand’s Adisak Kraisorn, No.9, heads the ball to score against Indonesia.
Thailand coach Akira Nishino vowed to fight on although the War Elephants only have slim hopes of progressing past Asia’s second qualifying round for the 2022 World Cup after a 2-2 draw with Indonesia on Thursday night.
The result was a blow to Thailand as three points would have taken them top of Group G, with Nishino’s men set to play the hosts United Arab Emirates, who defeated Malaysia 4-0 in Thursday’s other game, on Monday.
Thailand are third in the group with nine points from six matches, behind leaders Vietnam (11 points) and the UAE (nine) who both have a game in hand.
The remaining Group G campaign, which started on Thursday, is being played in Dubai due to travel restrictions as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic.
