ISKANDAR PUTERI, Dec 3 (Bernama) -- Johor Darul Takzim (JDT) were forced to forget their desire of collecting three points at home when they were tied 0-0 against Thai giants Buriram United in the Asian Champions League Elite (ACLE) match at Sultan Ibrahim Stadium (SSI), here, today.

The match involving the top clubs from Malaysia and Thailand was expectedly intensed when it was marred by three red cards issued by the referee.

The first red card in the 10th minute was for JDT player Murilo Santos when he fouled Dion Cools outside the penalty box, followed by the second red card issued to Buriram United captain Theerathon Bunmathan in the 43rd minute after committing a foul outside the game on Arif Aiman ​​Mohd Hanapi.

Meanwhile, the third red card was issued to JDT defender Park Jun Heong in injury time after fouling Guilherme Campos Bissoli.

The clash, played in rainy conditions from the first minute, saw both teams struggle to organise their attacks towards the goal.

JDT initially had to play with 10 players, but managed to absorb Buriram's pressure and ensure that no goals were conceded.

The match, however, was balance again after Buriram received the same fate, with having to play with 10 players.

JDT's three best attempts came in the 64th and 71st minutes, as well as Heberty in the 84th minute but was successfully saved by Buriram United goalkeeper Neil Leonard Etheridge.

Both teams were seen to be cautious and more defensive and the match ended without a goal until the final whistle.
