Southeast Asian fans react when Vietnam team defeated Singapore twice

"It's true that the Vietnamese team is returning to its class. I look forward to the upcoming AFF Cup 2024 final.

"The Vietnamese team won the AFF Cup 2018 very impressively and now it is the same. Congratulations to you guys," Anton Wijanarko from Indonesia expressed on the AFC Asian Cup page after the Vietnamese team won against Singapore with a score of 3-1 in the second leg of the semi-final at Viet Tri Stadium ( Phu Tho ) on the evening of December 29.

With this victory, the Vietnamese team defeated Singapore in both semi-final matches with a final score of 5-1, thereby registering their name in the final of the AFF Cup 2024.

This victory also helped the Vietnamese team maintain a 26-year unbeaten streak against Singapore (since the 0-1 loss in the 1998 Tiger Cup final) with a total of 16 matches (8 wins, 8 draws).

Notably, this was the match where the striker duo Xuan Son and Tien Linh shone, contributing to all 3 goals of the home team (Xuan Son scored a double, the remaining goal was scored by Tien Linh from the penalty spot in the 90+3 minute of extra time).

"Congratulations to the Vietnam team. You played well and achieved your goal of reaching the final. Hopefully you will be crowned the champion of the AFF Cup for the third time," Thailand's Alice Zaynab account praised the performance of the Vietnam team.

"I have said many times that the 2024 AFF Cup final is between Vietnam and Thailand. Vietnam will win. Vietnam's naturalized player Nguyen Xuan Son is truly a monster on the attack line, no defense can stop him from scoring," commented Indonesian account Mursalim Sapar.

"Congratulations to coach Kim Sang Sik for helping the Vietnamese team reach the final and hope he will be the second Korean strategist to help the "Golden Dragons" win the AFF Cup," Malaysian account Aripin Rosadi expressed.

"If Vietnam wins the AFF Cup, I will not be surprised or sad. I say from the bottom of my heart that the Vietnamese team has a formidable playing style that Thailand admires. I have never underestimated the Vietnamese team," a Thai fan also praised.

"Congratulations Vietnam, your team played well, deserved to be in the final, hope you will be the champion", Myanmar's Yan Myo Kyaw account also expressed.

"Hopefully our Philippine team will continue to do well like Vietnam, and get a good result against Thailand in the second leg of the semi-finals," a Philippine fan also shared his hopes.
