What is special is that Damoth is a player of Vietnamese origin. His grandparents are both Vietnamese citizens but have lived in Laos for a long time. The midfielder revealed that his grandparents are from Quang Binh province.

In the match against Vietnam, Damoth was in the starting lineup and somewhat proved his ability despite having to face Doan Ngoc Tan and Nguyen Hoang Duc. The midfielder born in 2004 competed well, calmly controlled the ball and passed to his teammates in the front line. His small stature was a barrier that prevented Damoth from shining.

The player who plays for Erza FC idolizes Nguyen Quang Hai. He highly appreciates the Vietnamese team and believes that coach Kim Sang-sik and his team have many opportunities to win the 2024 ASEAN Cup.

Damoth Thongkhamsavath is a key midfielder for U22 Laos at SEA Games 31. He was given a chance by coach Michael Weiss when he was only 18 years old and soon showed his talent. After that, Damoth Thongkhamsavath continued to appear in the Laos national team.

This season, Damoth Thongkhamsavath has scored 4 goals and provided 3 assists for his teammates, although the Lao League has only played 6 matches. Coach Ha Hyeok Jun hopes that his student can make a difference in the matches against Myanmar or the Philippines.
