Cambodia Champs Chop Korean Second Tier Winners

27/02/2008

Cambodian league champions Naga Corp FC denied Ulsan Mipo Dockyard back to back wins in their tour of Cambodia when they beat the latter 2-0 in a friendly which was played at the National Olympic Stadium in Phnom Penh.

A few days earlier, the club side from South Korea's second division had beaten the Cambodian national team 3-2 and they were looking to beat Naga Corp FC to complete their trip.

But in front of close to 10,000 fans, Naga Corp proved that they are worthy champions of Cambodian football when they staged a fightback to score two goals after the break for the win.

Chin Chum made the score sheet with the first goal in the 67th minute before Ernest Dipita added the winning lustre with the second goal of the afternoon six minutes to the end.
Ulsan finished top of Korea's national league in 2007 but refused to accept promotion
