Cambodia: Phnom Penh In Control

Two wins out of two have given Phnom Penh Empire FC the full points as they stretched to a 13 point lead at the top of the Cambodia Premier League 2008.

The close 2-1 win over second-placed Build Bright United FC the previous week was quickly followed by an inspiring 2-0 victory over Kirivong Sok Sen Chey FC.

Two goals in each half from Phuong Narong (16th minute) and Chan Rithy (83rd minute) were enough for Phnom Penh to pick up the full points against Build Bright even though the latter did pull a goal back in the 61st minute off O. Olisaemeka.

Against Kirivong, Phnom Penh need not suffer such drama as they blasted in two goals from Chan Rithy (18th minute) and Sun So Panha (77th minute) for the win.

In the meantime, two early goals from Hok Sokithya (29th minute) and O. O. Joseph (38th minute) did little to help basement side Intry Kraham-Post FC when they were held to a 2-2 draw by Khemara Keila FC.

Khemara fought back after the break with a brace from A. Tunjiayoyinka (70th and 81st minute) for the one point.
