(Dan Tri) - After defeating Thailand to win the 2024 AFF Cup, the Vietnamese team set a series of records.
Overcoming Thailand, the Vietnamese team won the AFF Cup 2024
The second leg of the 2024 AFF Cup final between Vietnam and Thailand was extremely thrilling. After 90 minutes of play, coach Kim Sang Sik's team won with a score of 3-2. Thus, the Vietnamese team was crowned champion with a total score of 5-3 after two matches.

Notably, the Vietnamese team showed their bravery and fighting spirit after Supachok scored a controversial goal. The "Golden Dragons" deserved to win the championship as they were far superior to Thailand in fighting spirit and desire to win.
This is the third AFF Cup championship in the history of the Vietnamese team. Previously, the "Golden Dragons" won the tournament in 2008 and 2018. We are the third most successful team in this tournament after Thailand (7 championships) and Singapore (4 times).
The Vietnamese team is very lucky when it comes to stopping the three-time consecutive championship record of its opponents. In the 2008 AFF Cup, we eliminated the team that won the championship twice in a row, Singapore (2004, 2007) in the semi-finals. The same thing happened in the 2024 AFF Cup when Thailand also fell to the Vietnamese team when they were very close to this great record. Before that, they won the 2020 and 2022 AFF Cup.
The Golden Star Warriors, along with Singapore, are the two teams that have twice defeated Thailand in the finals. Singapore did this in 2007 and 2012. Meanwhile, the Vietnamese team defeated the War Elephants in the finals of the 2008 and 2024 AFF Cup.
Coach Kim Sang Sik's team made history by becoming the team with the most wins in an AFF Cup with 7 matches. Even Thailand has not been able to win that many matches despite being crowned champions 7 times in this tournament. The Vietnam team's record in this year's tournament is 6 wins and 1 draw.

The Vietnamese team also has the highest goal difference in the history of the team when participating in the AFF Cup with +14 (scoring 20 goals, conceding 6 goals). In the AFF Cup 2022, the "Golden Dragons" set a record with a goal difference of +13 (scoring 16 goals, conceding 3 goals).
This is the first time the Vietnamese team has had two players score 4 goals or more in an AFF Cup, namely Xuan Son (7 goals) and Tien Linh (4 goals). In particular, Xuan Son made history by becoming the Vietnamese player with the most goals in the history of the tournament with 7 goals, surpassing the record of 6 goals scored by Huynh Duc and Tien Linh.
However, Xuan Son has not been able to break the record of Noh Alam Shah, who scored 10 goals for Singapore in the 2007 AFF Cup.
At noon on January 6, the entire Vietnamese team will return home. They are ready to celebrate their victory in the arms of their fans.
