Thailand beat Vietnam 2-0 to secure ASEAN Cup final place
FIFA reports goals from Sarach Yooyen and Chaiyaphon Otton in Bandung.
Thailand beat Vietnam 2-0 in Bandung on September 29 to secure a place in the FIFA ASEAN Cup final with a group match remaining, according to FIFA's match report. The result also ended Vietnam's 27-match unbeaten run.
Sarach Yooyen opened the scoring in the tenth minute. The Thai captain's long-range finish gave his team the early advantage, and substitute Chaiyaphon Otton added the second in third-minute stoppage time at the end of the match.
FIFA says Vietnam had a first-half effort disallowed after a VAR review. That effort is not included in the completed 2-0 score. The report records Thailand's second win in two tournament matches.
The official account says Thailand's next group opponent is the Philippines. It also says Vietnam need a draw against Pakistan to reach the bronze final. Those are the reported next-stage conditions, not results from matches already played.
