On the evening of December 21, 2022, Beijing time, the first round group match of the Southeast Asian Championship continued, Laos VS Vietnam. In the first half, the Vietnamese team scored first, and then Do Hung Dung scored the second goal. In the second half, the Vietnamese team's Hu Jincai , Duan Van Hou, Nguyen Van Quan and others scored 4 more goals. In the end, the Vietnamese team beat Laos 6-0 and got off to a good start. The Laos team only completed one shot in the game, and its ball possession rate was also pitifully low. The current Vietnamese team is very skilled in running-in and will be the first choice team to win this Southeast Asian Championship.
In the world rankings, the Vietnamese team ranks 96th, while Laos is outrageous, ranking 187th in the FIFA rankings. This is one of the lowest-ranked teams in Southeast Asia. Facing such a weak team, the Vietnamese team can be said to be "a sure shot" in winning the game. Throughout the first half, the Vietnamese team basically dominated Laos, with a 77% ball possession rate, which was more than twice that of the Laos team in terms of number of attacks and dangerous attacks.
In the first half, Ruan Jinling opened the scoring for the Vietnamese team. It is worth mentioning that this Nguyen Jin Linh has won the Vietnam Football Golden Globe Award. He ranked first among Vietnamese players with 8 goals in the World Cup qualifiers. And in the 3-1 victory over the national football team, he broke through the Chinese team's door twice.
In the 43rd minute, Vietnam captain Du Xiongyong scored to help the Vietnamese team rewrite the score to 2-0. And this Du Xiongyong once provided assists twice when the Vietnamese team defeated the national football team 3-1 and performed well.
In the 55th minute of the second half, Ruan Chengzhong assisted Hu Jincai and scored an empty goal. Three minutes later, in the 58th minute, Nguyen Hoang Duc assisted Duan Van Hou to expand the score to 4-0. Then in the 83rd and 91st minutes, Nguyen Van Quan and Vo Van Thanh helped the Vietnamese team score the last two goals of the game, and finally beat Laos 6-0.
In fact, in the final stage of the game, the Vietnamese team had two or three chances to score, but unfortunately they missed the goal by a hair. Throughout this game, the Laos team was really miserable. They only hit the goal once in the game and the ball possession rate was only 30%. For most of the time, they stayed in their own half to defend. The Vietnamese team's unscrupulous attack made the Laos team lose their temper at all.
In this Group B, the Vietnamese team is the strongest. In the next round, they will face the Malaysian team. Without any surprises, the Vietnamese team will qualify first in the group. At the same time, this team, which has competed in the top 12 and defeated the Chinese team, is still the favorite to win this Southeast Asian Championship.
