In the Thai League 1 2022/23 at PAT Stadium, Port FC defeated Ratchaburi FC at home by a score of 1-0, maintaining third place. Ratchaburi appeared to be doing well in the opening ten minutes, pressing forward aggressively and creating two clear-cut chances, but there was no goal.

As Sergio Suarez struck a shot in the 39th minute, Port came close to scoring once more, but the ball still ended up in the palms of Ratchaburi goalie Kamphol Pathomakkakul.
There were no notable opportunities after that, and both sides were tied nil- zero at the end of the first half.
The one and only Bordin Phala took the corner that Port Fc received in the 52nd minute that landed onto Hamilton Suarez’s header to give Port Fc a 1-0 lead.
Ratchaburi was reduced to 10 players in the 86th minute after Kiatisuk Jiamudom recklessly tackled Airton Tirabassi and was given a second yellow/red card, leading to his immediate dismissal.
Port FC won the game 1-0, earning three points, and moving up to third place, which is the best position they have held thus far this season.
