Boeung Ket snatched their third successive Cambodian Premier League win as they ran riot against Kirivong Sok Sen Chey at the Cambodia Airways Stadium last week.

The hosts put six goals past the Takeo-based side without conceding a single goal, though Taing Bunchhay insisted that Boeung Ket were made to work hard for this incredible win.

“It’s a great result and a deserved one, too. We prepared a lot before the match to get this result. It’s good for us in the title race,” the Boeung Ket defender told boeungketfc.com.

“We didn’t underestimate Kirivong Sok Sen Chey. We worked hard in the training and played hard in the match to get three points.”

Bunchhay bagged his first Boeung Ket goal in the thrashing of Kirivong Sok Sen Chey, and a brace from Tukiainen Sakari and three further goals from Ajayi Opeyemi, Mat Noron, and Mustafa Zazai saw Boeung Ket wrap up a convincing 6-0 win.

Last week’s three points move Boeung Ket to second in the Cambodian Premier League table with four points behind league leaders Preah Khan Reach Svay Rieng.

Bunchhay is, however, confident that the four-time champions of Cambodia are on the right track for the title race.

“It’s my first goal for the club, so I feel great. Hopefully, I can continue to score for the club and especially for our supporters to put the smile on their face,” added the 19-year-old.

“We lost two matches in a row, but for now we get three straight wins. That could show everyone that we are a strong side that play with strong team spirit. We work hard every day for the club and our supporters.

“Preah Khan Reach Svay Rieng are a fantastic team, but our league is quite competitive. They will drop points in some matches.

“We are also a great team. We are more than capable of fighting for the title.”
