FIFA's homepage posted a clip praising goalkeeper Kim Thanh of the Vietnamese women's team. At the beginning of the clip, most of the fans of the US team admitted that they did not know anything about the goalkeeper born in 1993.
However, after the US team's opening match ended, American fans expressed their impression of Kim Thanh's talent. Although the Vietnamese team lost the match, Kim Thanh still received many compliments. Without her talent, the Vietnamese team's net would not have shaken only 3 times. Notably, Kim Thanh blocked the penalty kick taken by Alex Morgan.
American audiences are impressed with goalkeeper Kim Thanh.
" She had an incredible game ," commented a US fan. Another spectator who came to watch live at the stadium implied that Kim Thanh was praised: " To stop Alex Morgan is a big deal ."
Meanwhile, a female fan of the US team exclaimed: " She did an excellent job. I was really impressed with her ."
US goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher praised: " I thought she played well, made a lot of great saves and always played with confidence ."
According to Sofascore's scoring system, goalkeeper Kim Thanh received 7.8 points - the highest score of the Vietnamese women's team in the match against the US team. Despite conceding 3 goals, the goalkeeper wearing the number 14 jersey still had an excellent performance with many saves.
Specifically, Kim Thanh made 5 saves against the opponent's shots. In addition, the 29-year-old goalkeeper had a total of 9 clearances.
Only four players scored higher than Kim Thanh: Sophia Smith, Lindsey Horan, Savannah DeMelo and Julie Ertz.
Kim Thanh continued that form in the match against Portugal. She once again achieved a high score from Sofascore, with 8.3 points and was only behind Francisca Nazareth (9.1 points).
The journey of the Vietnamese women's team ended after 3 losses in the group stage. However, the fighting spirit and unyielding determination of Kim Thanh and her teammates were praised by the home fans.
