Vietnamese fans are very dissatisfied with the performance of the Vietnamese team.

They were originally full of expectations for Vietnam's quarterfinals, but they didn't understand why the game was different from the news reports. It was difficult for them to accept the situation of being suppressed by Hong Kong, China, and the score led by Hong Kong.

In the audience's stands, Vietnamese fans began to shout dissatisfied.

If you don’t understand Vietnam and don’t understand Vietnamese, it’s really hard to know what Vietnamese fans are expressing, but Vietnamese players on the court know that it’s a shout of dissatisfaction against them.

The dissatisfaction of Vietnamese fans also had a little impact on Vietnamese players.

The Vietnamese players on the court actually worked very hard, and there was no reason not to be serious in the Asian Cup quarterfinals that were rare to participate in.

Every Vietnamese player hopes to perform well and help the team defeat their opponents, and create the closest quarterfinals of Vietnamese football history. Personally, the games that the whole Asia pays attention to is also a rare stage for showing their abilities. If they can perform well, they will definitely receive more attention, so there is no reason why they don’t play seriously.

Now that we can't play an advantage for a while, the main reason is that the opponent's performance is too good.

The performance of this Hong Kong team in China is so surprising. They have been working hard, but they feel that there seems to be a gap in the abilities of both sides.

It’s not that there is a gap between them, but that on the other hand, there is a gap between them and Hong Kong, China!

This feeling surprised them very much.

The opponents are only Hong Kong, China. How could they be stronger than their Asian ends? How could they be suppressed by playing better? Vietnamese players feel incredible, but they can only suppress their confusion and continue to join the game.

In the 35th minute, Vietnam coach Riddle saw that the team could not play an advantage for a long time, so he made adjustments. He replaced a midfielder with a midfield player.

The purpose of Riddle's adjustment is obviously to strengthen the control and competition in the midfield, so as to open up the situation from the middle.

Vietnamese media still have expectations for Riddle's adjustment.

In fact, Vietnamese media and fans recognize Riddle's ability to lead the team, because Riddle led Vietnam to the quarterfinals and created the best results in Vietnam's football history.

Vietnam's performance in the group stage is already very outstanding. Even if he loses this game, he has only entered the quarterfinals, and Vietnam has created a new football history. Vietnamese media and fans should be satisfied with Vietnam's results. However, because they met Hong Kong, China in the quarterfinals, a rival who seems to be weaker than Vietnam. Vietnam is looking forward to further reaching the quarterfinals, but unexpectedly, this team that is "imagined" weaker than Vietnam suppressed Vietnam on the court and scored a goal, which made the media and fans a little unable to accept it, but they will not use this to doubt Riddle's ability.

When Riddle made a substitution adjustment, Vietnamese media began to look forward to it. Vietnam's National Sports Channel commentator Ji Chengju said, "It is a good choice to replace Li Xincai. In this way, there will be three people in the middle, and the defense and offense intensity in the middle will increase..."

Jicheng's comments also represent the ideas of most Vietnamese media.

But the Vietnamese media had a good idea, but the Vietnamese team did not win back the situation on the field as they thought.

After Vietnam made substitution adjustments, the game was no different from before. Hong Kong, China, still had the advantage, and it was difficult for Vietnam to find good opportunities in the frontcourt.

As the first half was about to end, when I remembered Riddle's adjustments, I knew that they did not play any role.

The game entered the halftime, and the two teams returned to the locker room respectively, waiting for the second half to begin.

The media also took advantage of the time to analyze the first half of the game.

After 45 minutes of the game, the strength and performance of Hong Kong and Vietnam were also clearly on the surface. The media's analysis was based on specific game data. Whether it was scores, passes, ball control, shots, etc. in the first half, Hong Kong and Hong Kong had great advantages over Vietnam.

After analyzing the results, the Vietnamese media discovered a pessimistic fact - the reason why Vietnam is passive is not that Riddle is not capable of coaching, nor that Vietnam does not perform well in this game, but that Vietnam cannot play Hong Kong, China!

In terms of ability, what Hong Kong shows is no worse than Vietnam; in terms of cooperation, Hong Kong is still no worse than Vietnam.

Vietnam has no advantage over Hong Kong, China.

At this time, the Vietnamese media didn't know what to say. Before the game, they swear to say that Vietnam will win. As a result, in the current game, it feels like a slap in their face.

It hurts so much!

They gritted their teeth and endured it, and at the same time they gritted their teeth at the head coach of Hong Kong, the young Chinese, "You said, since you brought Hong Kong, China, has such strength, why don't you talk about winning before the game?"

Before the match against Australia, you said that it would prove that "China and Hong Kong are the most promising teams to qualify in the group"; before the match against Thailand, you said that Thailand would continue to work hard to break through the Asian Cup in the next round," and before the match against Iraq, you also said that "a draw is a victory, but it will strive for victory."

Then... if you compete with Vietnam, you will say nothing, making us think you have no confidence in the game!

Isn’t this a cheating person?

Vietnamese media feel that they have become a vulnerable group that is 'trapped'.

As the media and fans talked, the halftime flashed by and the second half soon came.

During the halftime break, Vietnam coach Riddle did some ideological work. At the beginning of the second half, Vietnam played very proactively and suppressed Hong Kong, China for a while. However, as time passed, the situation soon returned to the situation in the first half.

Facing the former strong Hong Kong, Vietnam has become increasingly passive.

In the 57th minute, Hong Kong, China, made a strong attack. The football passed to Huang Zhenyu's feet on the side. Huang Zhenyu dribbled the ball to the bottom line, and then made a cross.

Football flies directly to the small penalty area!

This time, Vietnamese goalkeeper Yang Hongshan made a mistake. He stood in a very good position, but he did not come out decisively when he was about to attack. Instead, he stopped for a while and finally chose to stand in front of the goal and let his defenders defend. As a result, China's Hong Kong forward Zhuo Zhuo rushed over and pushed the ball into the goal with his head. Yang Hongshan didn't even have time to make a save.

The ball has entered!

2:0!

After this goal, the Vietnamese team, fans, media, and almost all Vietnamese people knew that there was little hope of winning.

As the head coach, Riddle did not give up. He continued to make substitution adjustments, replaced a defender player, and replaced a forward, intending to let the whole team fight.

Then Vietnam has five midfielders and two forwards, plus the full-back who occasionally intervenes, and there are a lot of players who can participate in the offense, and the adjustment effect is still very obvious. Hong Kong, China, was suppressed for a while, and Vietnam fought two consecutive attacks, posing a threat to the gate guarded by Fan Junye.

But soon, Hong Kong, China, used a quick counterattack to let Vietnam know the importance of defense.

Vietnam is two goals behind, and there is no other way, so it can only continue to maintain its offensive and look forward to being lucky enough to tie the score.

Vietnamese media and fans are also praying for the team. They hope that a miracle will happen. Unfortunately, their prayers have no effect. The next goal will appear soon, but it still belongs to Hong Kong, China.

In the 78th minute, using a free kick cooperation opportunity, Chen Zhaoji headed the ball and was saved. Midfielder Jiang Shihao grabbed the right side of the penalty area and made a follow-up shot. The football rushed into the goal directly.

3:0!

"The ball has entered! 3:0! There is no suspense!"

"The goal was Jiang Shihao! This was his first goal in the Asian Cup!"

"3:0! Now we can announce that Hong Kong, China, has won, and they have successfully advanced to the semi-finals!"

With the commentator's words, all the fans who supported Hong Kong, cheered, and they felt very proud of the team's achievements now.

Asian Cup semifinals!

Before, Hong Kong fans dared not think about it, and no one else would think that the semi-finals of the Asian Cup would have a place in Hong Kong.

Now, Hong Kong, China, has done it.

Every Hong Kong fan was very excited. They cheered freely in the stands, and many people had already begun to celebrate the victory in advance.

In this atmosphere, time passes little by little.

Vietnam has been working hard to play. They hope to score a goal in the last time. Even if they cannot win, they will try their best to save face.

But in the end, they still didn't score, and the game ended 3:0.

When the referee blew the whistle to the end of the game, all Hong Kong fans cheered excitedly, and the scene was occupied by the fans' calls.

The live commentator also said, "3:0, Hong Kong, China, defeated Vietnam and advanced to the semi-finals of the Asian Cup!"

"Congratulations to them!"

"This is historic for Hong Kong, China. For decades, they have not been able to reach the final stage of the Asian Cup, and no one will think about what good results China and Hong Kong can achieve, but they qualify as the first in the group and defeated Vietnam in this game to advance to the semi-finals!"

"This is a very amazing result! Hong Kong, China! Awesome team!"

"At the same time, we must also talk about the head coach of Hong Kong, Wan Sheng. We should say that the Hong Kong Football Association invited this young Chinese coach to coach the team was their most successful step. It was under the leadership of this young and famous coach that Hong Kong, China, can achieve such good results."

"After proving coaching ability in Europe, this Chinese came to the Asian Cup. He led Hong Kong, China, and proved himself again with surprising results."

"Now we all have to admit that Wansheng, this young Chinese is really amazing!"

“…”

Amid the praise, the quarterfinals between Hong Kong and Vietnam ended, and Hong Kong China approached the semi-finals of the Asian Cup. (To be continued.)
