Buriram United wrapped up a successful season with a 2-0 victory over 10-man Lamphun Warriors in the League Cup final on Saturday night that took their trophy haul in 2024-2025 to four.

The Thunder Castle earlier won the Thai League 1, the AFF Asean Club Championship or Shopee Cup and the FA Cup and their victory in the League Cup saw their income from prize monies swell to more than 100 million baht for the season.

First-time finalists Lamphun had a nightmarish start to the showdown as they were left with 10 men on the pitch only after the third minute.

Warriors striker Fabinho fouled Buriram defender Ko Myeong-Seok and the match referee gave him his marching orders after consulting the VAR.
