Eleven Tiger then ambushed Latte with two back-to-back goals before the end of the first half, for a 3-1 lead. Silence then reigned as both teams stalked through the pitch\u2014in a tug of war with the ball.<\/p>\n

But Eleven Tiger\u2019s defense went on to shut down Latte, while Akira Kadokura made it 4-1. Eleven Tiger scored their fifth goal made by Tanapon Unsa in the 61st minute. Only until the very last minute did Latte\u2019s Nolan Ngewakl score their second goal.<\/p>\n
