The host lost 0-2 to Australia’s U23 team in the second round match of the tournament, which is being held as one of the activities to celebrate the capital’s 1000 th anniversary.
The defeat pushed the hosts down the rankings table to second place with three points. Australia are still in third place after their win.
Meanwhile, the North Korean U23 team played to their second victory on September 22 to climb to the top. They beat Kuwait’s U23 team 1-0.
Vietnam, who played very well in their first match against Kuwait, did not find their peak yesterday. In fact, their defence was loose and their blunt forwards and passive midfielders proved no challenge to the visitors.
In the last round match, Vietnam will play North Korea while Australia will meet Kuwait tomorrow./.
