Khon Kaen United go top

New leaders. Khon Kaen United go top on 9 points despite a goal difference of exactly zero — 7 scored, 7 conceded in four games. Entertaining, leaky, and suddenly the team to catch.

Three teams still unbeaten — Uttaradit (8 pts, 2nd), Kanchanaburi (6 pts), and Nakhon Pathom (4 pts, four draws from four). Nobody's lost yet in that trio, but only Uttaradit are turning draws into wins.

Satun's first defeat — with an asterisk. The promoted side's perfect start ended at Nongbua, and the manner of it will sting: Satun came from 0–2 down to 3–3, then lost to an 87th-minute Luân Costa goal that fans rightly argued was offside. No VAR in Thai League 2.

The promoted trio are for real. After four rounds: Satun 6 pts, Loei 7 pts (and level on points with the sides directly below the top two), Uttaradit 8 pts in 2nd. All three are in the top half.

Goals are flying in. 27 in nine matches, with two separate 4–3s in eight days involving Nongbua and Uttaradit. Defences, as Santi Chaiphuek admits, are behind the strikers so far.

Firsts everywhere at the bottom. Phrae's first win (3–0 away), Kasetsart's first point, and Chainat's second win — the early-season separates are starting to form, though the FIFA Day break now pauses the league.

Best comeback: PT Satun — 0–2 down at Nongbua, back to 3–3, only to be denied by the 87th-minute controversy. A comeback in a losing cause, but the bravest away performance of the round.

Best performance: Uttaradit — 4–3 in another seven-goal classic, still unbeaten, up to second. (Honourable mention: Phrae's 3–0 at Pattaya.)

Best story: The Luân Costa 87th-minute "offside" winner at Nongbua — no flag, no VAR, and a fanbase in revolt. It decided the game of the weekend
