Timbe kickstarts life in Thailand with a bang

Kenyan international Ayub Timbe posted a dream start to life in Thailand as he bagged an assist and goal in his debut as his Buriram United side whitewashed Chiangmai United 4-1 in the Thai Premier League. The 29-year-old made the switch to Buriram in early December after terminating his contract with Japanese side Vissel Kobe in what he termed as lack of honouring his contract.🚨GOAL ALERT🚨🎥 Nani kama @MasikaAyub 🔥🔥Moment of magic from Timbe on his debut.

Chiangmai grabbed the consolation goal in the 71st minute through Sarawut Masuk as he profited from a defensive mix up to volley the ball into the back of the net.
