BEN Davis was on the losing side as Thailand Under 23s tasted defeat in the final of the Southeast Asian Games.
The Oxford United midfielder started the 1-0 defeat to Vietnam, but was unable to help his country to the gold medal.
The only goal of the match came in the 82nd minute when Dung Nham Manh was left unmarked to head home from a cross by Tai Phan Tuan.
Despite defeat in the final, Davis had an impressive tournament for Thailand.
