JAKARTA - Asnawi Mangkualam Bahar finally made his debut with Port FC in the 17th week of Thai League 1 2023/2024 at the PAT Stadium, Bangkok, Wednesday, February 14, 2024.

The Indonesian national team captain's debut in the 2023 Asian Cup has sweet fruit. Port FC won over Muangthon United 4-3.

Asnawi did not play from the start of the match. He was just included by coach Rangsan Viwatchaichok at the end of the second half.

The 24-year-old player came in to replace Suphanan Bureerat who also filled the right-back post.

Even though he only appeared for a short time, Asnawi played an important role in the winning goal process for the club nicknamed Port Lions in the 90+4 minute.

The player from Makassar started the Port FC attack by combing the right side of the attack.

The penetration ended with a cut-back bait received by Worachit Kanitsribampen. Worachit then passed to Tardeli, whose position was more profitable.

The Brazilian immediately opened fire in the penalty box which resulted in the team's fourth goal.

Meanwhile, Port FC's three goals were previously scored by Hattrick Teerasak Poeiphimai (62', 73', and 76').

Port FC was 0-2 behind Muangthong United through two goals from Willian Loop (28' and 45+5').

Port Lions then made a comeback with a 3-2 advantage. However, Muangthon United equalized in the 85th minute through Kotaro Omori's goal.

Luckily, Port FC was able to score a winning goal in the second half injury time to ensure three points at home.

Additional tripoins made Port FC stay in third place and stuck to Buriram United. They are now collecting 35 points and are only one point away from second and two points from leaders, Bangkok United.

Apart from that, Asnawi Mangkualam Bahar was brought to Port FC from Ansan Greeners at the end of January 2024 after returning from defending the Indonesian national team in the 2023 Asian Cup.

However, he had not been fielded when Port FC won over Police Tero 4-0 on February 11, 2024.
