Dang Van Lam mmade a mistake in his debut match at Muangthong
On February 19, Muangthong United had a friendly match with Thaiunion Samutsakhon FC at SCG Stadium (Thailand). Thaiunion is a team playing in Thai League 2 so it is not as classy as Muangthong.
In this match, Muangthong scored 3 goals, including 2 penalties. However, the highlight was Dang Van Lam's unfortunate mistake in the second half.
In the 52nd minute, a Thaiunion Samutsakhon FC player took a simple shot from a very long distance, Van Lam thought the ball would miss the goal. Unfortunately for him, the ball hit the post and rolled straight into the net, much to the surprise of the Vietnamese goalkeeper. That was also Thaiunion's only goal in this match.
Losing the game so foolishly, the 25-year-old goalkeeper apologized to his teammates. In the following minutes, Van Lam still maintained his composure and made a few commendable saves.

Kimmich was booked in the 28th minute for a tackle on Sadio Mane. The tackle left Kimmich in pain and he needed medical attention a few minutes later. Coach Niko Kovac asked Rafinha to warm up and replace Kimmich, but the German defender continued to play until the end of the match.
This is a big loss for Bayern as Kimmich is an important position on the right wing thanks to his ability to attack and defend flexibly.
Meanwhile, Barca drew 0-0 at Lyon. Although Barca controlled the ball 64% and had 23 shots (while Lyon only had 4 shots), the Spanish team could not score any goals.
According to statistics, there were a total of 54 shots taken in the 2 Champions League matches early this morning, but no goals were scored.
MU must finish in the Top 4 to recruit Jason Sancho
Dortmund's young star Jason Sancho has been linked with a £100m move to Manchester United.Mirror(England) said MU must win a ticket to the Champions League next season to have a chance to recruit Sancho. Otherwise, the 18-year-old player will refuse to return to England to play. This season, Sancho has scored 8 goals in 28 appearances for Dortmund.
The Englishman has helped Dortmund lead the Bundesliga table this season. The Signal Iduna Park team has a great chance of winning the Bundesliga and playing in the Champions League next season.
Therefore, Sancho will only agree to join MU if the "Red Devils" also win a ticket to the Champions League next season. Currently, MU is ranked 4th on the Premier League table with 51 points.
