At the beginning of the match at Bunyodkor, defender Tuan Tai received the ball from a distance of more than 25 meters to the left of Thailand’s goal. He shot past the Thai defender’s shoulder, causing the ball to change trajectory and fly into the net at 17 seconds. This is the fastest goal of the 2022 AFC U23 Championship, and the earliest since midfielder Cho Jae-wan scored in seconds. 12th against Korea in the quarterfinals of 2018 in Kunshan city, China.
If including the qualifiers, the fastest goal record belongs to striker Marwan Farhad at 7 seconds, in the match between the host UAE and Oman in the 2022 Asian U23 qualifier.
Not only scoring, this match Tuan Tai also crossed the ball like a bet, leading to a super product that raised the score to 2-1 by striker Nguyen Van Tung in the 72nd minute. This is not the first time Tuan Tai shines in the U23 shirt of Vietnam. At the 31st SEA Games, the 21-year-old defender crossed the ball like set for striker Nham Manh Dung to head the only goal in the final against Thailand on May 22.
The goal of Tuan Tai.
Tuan Tai grew up at the Viettel training camp, but is playing for Dak Lak on loan. His forte position is left-back, but he can also play a left-sided center-back in coach Park Hang-seo’s three central defenders. Tuan Tai may not be too fast, but stands out in his ability to cross the ball with the left rafter. The 1.76m-high defender is still waiting for the opportunity to debut in the V-League, if he is called by Viettel in the near future.
