With the defeat, Vietnam’s U19 squad is the first team to be eliminated from
the round, which is taking place in Indonesia.
During the match, the Australian team created many difficult situations for
Vietnam’s goalkeeper Y Eli Nie. They scored the match’s opening goal at the
37th minute, by Angus Thurgate.
In the second half, the Australian side continued to play a better game than
their Vietnamese peers. Folami raised the score to 2-0 at the 75th minute of
the match.
Despite being led by two goals, the Vietnamese players were still extremely
determined and were rewarded with a goal shortening the score to 1-2 by Le Van
Nam at the 85th minute.
Previously, the Vietnamese team had suffered a 1-2 defeat to Jordan in their
opening match at the tournament.
The second successive defeat forced the team to say goodbye to both the
tournament and their dream of a second chance at the FIFA U20 World Cup in
2019.
