Southeast Asian fans mock U23 Vietnam after the defeat against the UAE

To prepare for the AFC U23 Championship 2022, the evening of May 28 U23 Vietnam had a friendly match with U23 UAE. Although they played well, but before a much higher rated opponent, coach Gong Oh-kyun’s teachers and students had to receive a 0-3 defeat against the home team.

After the match result was posted on the ASEAN Football fanpage, there were immediately many sarcastic comments from Southeast Asian fans towards U23 Vietnam.

A Thai fan commented: “A team that claims to be above the village level and steps up to the Asian level. Can you do this?”

An account named Sakda Sangphangkay commented: “If playing defensively and counter-attacking like Coach Park did, Vietnam is ready to concede a goal. If they meet a team with good stats like the South Asian team, the Middle East, Vietnam will win or lose.”

However, the results of the matches do not reflect the true strength of the teams. Before the match of U23 Vietnam, U23 Thailand also suddenly received a salt defeat in front of a weak team, Hong Kong U23. This is just the momentum of the teams before officially entering the tournament.

In the group stage, U23 Vietnam is in the same group with U23 Thailand, U23 Malaysia and U23 Korea.
