In the 39th minute, Indonesia got a golden opportunity through Witan Sulaeman who took advantage of goalkeeper Kittipong Phodthawchuek's blunder.
The ball kicked by Kittipong hit Witan. The US player Trencin then chased the ball that moved into the Thai penalty box.
Seeing the empty Thai goal left by Kittipong, Witan fired a left-footed shot. However, Witan's shot into the empty goal was narrowly sideways on the right side.
