On-loan Blues striker Ben Folami netted his first goal for the Melbourne Victory as they drew 2-2 away against Thai side Chiangrai United in the AFC Champions League earlier this afternoon.

Folami's 27th-minute goal gave his side a two-goal lead, however, they were pegged back with the home side scoring twice in the second half.

The 21-year-old joined the Victory back in his native Australia on loan for the season at the end of last month.

The Australia U23 international was making his third appearance for his loan club with their next game another AFC Champions League tie at home to FC Seoul on Thursday. The A-League season is set to get under way at the end of December.

Wishing4arightback added 18:03 - Nov 30 So he is good enough to start in the Asian Champions league, not the same standard as the European one I agree, but is able to score despite our manager believing he is no where near good enough for a really poor third tier club. Speaks volumes......
