In the 28th minute of the quarter-final match between U23 Vietnam and U23 Iraq, U23 Iraq was awarded a penalty after the Australian referee judged that two U23 Vietnam players committed a foul in the penalty area.
Referee Duong Manh Hung commented: "In my opinion, the Australian referee's penalty award was justified. However, because it was a sensitive situation leading to a goal, it had to be carefully considered.
The situation where two defenders Duy Manh and Xuan Manh jumped on the opponent, player number 10 did not have a clear chance to create a goal. Therefore, this is a very normal mistake in football because football is a direct confrontation sport, not every touch is a mistake. If it were me, I would not blow the whistle because it is not convincing enough"
The referee who received the 2006 Vietnam Golden Whistle award added: “The U23 Asian Cup Organizing Committee’s arrangement for an Australian referee to officiate this match is not very good because we eliminated Australia. In a situation like this, it is disadvantageous for the Vietnamese team. I do not defend Vietnam, but it is clear that I would not have refereed in that situation,” Mr. Duong Manh Hung affirmed.
