Penalty goal, long shot, U22 Vietnam lost to U22 Uzbekistan

The second match of the CFA Team China 2024 international friendly tournament witnessed the confrontation between U22 Vietnam and U22 Uzbekistan on the afternoon of September 7 in China. As predicted by experts, U22 Vietnam made 8 changes in the starting lineup compared to the opening day. Coach Dinh Hong Vinh hopes that all players can enter the field to compete.

However, Uzbekistan is inherently a very strong opponent and U22 Vietnam encountered many difficulties. Thai Son, in his second time wearing the captain's armband, played steadily and confidently. But he alone was not enough to help U22 Vietnam have a good game. The white shirt defense quickly collapsed and conceded consecutive goals.

In the 14th minute, a defender of U22 Vietnam fouled an Uzbekistan player in the penalty area. U22 Uzbekistan was awarded a penalty.

On the 11-meter penalty spot, captain Abdurazzokov accurately kicked the opening score for the West Asian representative. More notably, just a few dozen seconds before, U22 Vietnam also collided with an Uzbekistan player in the penalty area on the other side of the field but was not awarded a penalty.

This goal did not change the outcome of the match. In fact, U22 Vietnam played well but had to concede another goal in a difficult scenario. In the 25th minute, receiving the ball from outside the penalty area, Kamirov fired a beautiful long-range shot to double the gap for Uzbekistan.

Result: U22 Vietnam 0-2 U22 Uzbekistan
