Compared to the match against Hong Kong (China) 5 days ago, the Vietnamese team showed a completely different face against the highly rated opponent Syria.

Coach Troussier's team still maintained a ball control style of play but was more solid and almost made no mistakes.

The red team played better and better and continuously created delicious opportunities from the second half of the first half.

Pham Tuan Hai shone just a few minutes after entering the field to score the only goal, bringing complete joy to the Vietnamese team.

The opening goal helped the Vietnamese team gain more excitement. Just a few minutes later, Van Tung and Quang Hai continuously threatened the opponent's goal but could not take advantage to increase the gap.

This is also the second consecutive victory of the national team under coach Philippe Troussier.

Previously, in the French strategist's debut match, the "Golden Star Warriors" also defeated Hong Kong (China) 1-0 thanks to a penalty goal by Que Ngoc Hai.

With two consecutive victories, coach Philippe Troussier has had a joyful start to his plans and goals for the future.

Although these are just friendly matches, they will help the Vietnamese team improve its ranking on the FIFA rankings, thereby creating many advantages in seeding for the 2026 World Cup and Asian Cup qualifying draws.
