Junior Eldstal scores first goal for Chonburi.
Junior Eldstal bagged an injury-time goal to salvage a 1-1 draw for Chonburi against Rayong on the final day of the 2020-21 Thai League 1 season on Sunday.
The former Sarawak and Johor Darul Ta'zim (JDT) defensive player, who ended his brief retirement in 2019, was found unmarked in the box as he headed the ball past the Rayong goalkeeper to cancel out Goshi Okubo's 16th-minute opener.

The 29-year-old became the second Malaysian to score in Thai top-flight football after former Nakhon Ratchasima striker Shahrel Fikri in 2018.
Eldstal joined the Sharks from England's Metropolitan Police in February and made 12 appearances in total this season.
Chonburi ended the season in 12th place, four points clear from the relegation zone.
