Hanoi (VNA) – Host Vietnam lost 1-2 to visiting Thailand in a LPBank Cup friendly match at My Dinh National Stadium on September 10 evening despite scoring first.
Vietnam started strong, with Tien Linh scoring the opener in the 20th minute off a long pass from Que Ngoc Hai.
However, Thailand equalised just five minutes later through a close-range header from Suphanat. Patrick Gustavsson then put Thailand ahead 2-1 before halftime.
In the second half, Vietnam pressed hard for an equalizer, but heavy rain hindered their efforts. Despite creating pressure, the match ended with a 1-2 defeat for Vietnam.
This is Vietnam’s second loss in the tripartite football tournament as part of FIFA Days 2024. On September 5, they lost 0-3 to Russia./.
