With this draw, Korea and Vietnam took one point each. Korea Rep. maintained the top spot (4 points) and Vietnam moved up to 2nd place (2 points).
Korea chose the 4-1-4-1 formation. Park Jeong-in was at the forefront, while Sang-bin Sang, Young-jun Ko, Jae-hyeon Ko, and Uhm-seong Uhm stood in the second line. Jinyong Lee kept the midfield, and Jun Choi, Jaehwan Park, Sangmin Lee, and Taehwan Kim formed the back. Dongmin Koh put on goalkeeper gloves.
Against this, Vietnam also came out in a 4-1-4-1 formation. Quot Van Kang came in first, followed by Le Van Do, Bhu Thien Long, Nguyen Van Truong and Li Cong Hoang An. Luong Jooy Khuong midfield was formed, while Phan Thuan Tai, Myom Mae Jung, Bui Hoang Viet An and Nguyen Thanh Binh formed the fabric. Quan Van Zhuan defended the goal.
Both teams were desperate. Hwang Seon-Hong-Ho aimed to advance to the quarterfinals early by winning the Vietnam War, and Vietnam, led by coach Oh-Kyun Gong, had to draw three points in the last match once morest Thailand.
Vietnam tried to solve the game by using their fast speed at the beginning of the game, but Korea defended without difficulty and took the lead like the previous game with Malaysia. South Korea focused on finding gaps by turning the ball to attack Vietnam, which had fallen into two lines of defense.
Both teams had good chances once in a while, but failed to score. In the 25th minute of the first half, Jung Sang-bin shot a cutback pass given by Um Ji-sung, but it skipped over the side of the goal. In the 31st minute of the first half, Choi Jun mightn’t handle the ball properly, but Boutien Long took a chance, but the shot hit the side net.
South Korea failed to attack Vietnam’s suffocation defense. In the 41st minute of the first half, Jeong Sang-bin gave up a cutback following breaking through, but Uhm Ji-sung’s shot was blocked by Ban Zhuen’s save. The first half ended in a draw with no goals scored by either team.
Coach Hwang Seon-hong tried to reverse the game by introducing Cho Young-wook and Oh Se-hoon, who were active in the last game. The effect of the substitution was shown when Hong Hyun-seok was put in in the 15th minute of the second half.
Hong Hyeon-seok proved himself to be right in his appointment by raising his attack points within three minutes of being put in. In the 18th minute of the second half, Hong Hyun-seok sent a pass between the two opposing defenders, and Cho Young-wook shot through the leg of Nguyen Thanh Binh, opening the goal for Vietnam.
South Korea might not overcome Lee Jin-yong’s cumulative red cards in the 33rd minute of the second half. In the 38th minute of the second half, Vu Tien Long equalized the match. South Korea tried to score an additional goal in the remaining time, but it was not successful. Rather, they gave up a crisis to Vietnam, but there were no additional goals. The match ended in a 1-1 draw.
