What did the Vietnamese futsal player say about the lightning-fast goal against Lebanon?

Đinh Công Viên’s goal at the 20th second opened up the game for the Vietnam futsal team and brought them closer to securing a quarterfinal spot.

A 2-0 victory over Lebanon held special significance for the Vietnam futsal team, highlighted by Đinh Công Viên’s lightning strike goal in just the 20th second. This early score not only gave a lead but also allowed the red-shirted team to easily execute their tactical plan.

Right after the kickoff, the Vietnam futsal team suddenly increased their attacking pace. From a quick combination on the right wing, Thịnh Phát skillfully handled the ball before delivering a precise cross for Đinh Công Viên to finish with a one-touch shot, beating the Lebanon goalkeeper. Scoring within 20 seconds completely unsettled their opponent.

Regarding this memorable moment, Đinh Công Viên shared: “I’m very happy that the team has won two consecutive matches, creating a favorable advantage to approach upcoming games with better morale, aiming to control our fate in the race for the top spot in Group B.” According to the Vietnam futsal team’s fixo, the early goal helped the entire team relieve pressure and play with much more confidence.

After taking the lead, the players of Coach Diego Giustozzi did not rush to increase pressure but deliberately played a tight game, controlling space and maintaining proper team formation. Attacks were brief, prioritizing safety and only accelerating when the opponent left gaps.

This disciplined style continued to be effective in the 4th minute. From a long pass in their own half, Vũ Ngọc Ánh skillfully controlled the ball and took consecutive shots. After the rebound, the Vietnamese ala quickly fired a decisive shot, raising the score to 2-0 for the red-shirted team.

For the remainder of the match, the Vietnam futsal team maintained high defensive concentration, minimizing Lebanon’s attacking opportunities. Commenting on the opponent, Đinh Công Viên added: “Lebanon plays solid defense, often organizing half-court defense which made it difficult for us. However, the whole team was patient and made good use of opportunities to achieve the desired result.” This victory puts Vietnam in a strong position to secure an early quarterfinal spot in Group B.
