The Vietnamese team defended the 1-0 result with a good position, not only that, we missed good opportunities to increase the gap.
Highlights of the match – Source: Next Sports
Following a fiery Malaysia defeating Vietnam at home, Park Hang Seo and his team entered the match with a cautious mindset.
Faced with the initiative of the away team, the Vietnamese players’ feet were somewhat out of rhythm.
The offense doesn’t have many highlights, but the defense continuously makes viewers’ hearts skip a beat.
Unable to let the home team be constantly pressured, the front line players played hard and created a lot of disturbances for the Malaysian defense.
In the first connecting kick, Quang Hai accurately took Hung Dung’s pass, but he ran too far, causing the referee to flag for offside.
The first half ended with a one-goal advantage in favor of Vietnam National Team.
More opportunities began to appear, especially since Cong Phuong left the field for Anh Duc.
In the remaining time, although Malaysia tried very hard, they could not create any dangerous opportunities towards the Van Lam goal.
This victory is also a gift that the players sent to coach Park Hang Seo on the 2nd anniversary of this teacher leading the Vietnamese national teams.
