Nghe An football tournament in Japan towards homeland

(Baonghean.vn) -On November 19, in Nagoya province, Japan, the Nghe An Association organized the 37th Nagoya Open Cup football tournament to pay tribute to the homeland of the Central region.

Participating in the tournament are 20 football teams, mainly children from Nghe An - Ha Tinh, living, studying and working in Nagoya province, in addition to some football teams from fellow countrymen from other provinces.

The organizers presented souvenir flags to the football teams.

Due to time constraints, the tournament only took place on Sunday, with teams competing continuously from early morning to late afternoon.

Despite the cold weather, Yatomi Stadium and the artificial turf fields here were heated up by exciting and dramatic matches, along with enthusiastic cheers from Nghe An compatriots.

Yatomi Stadium was heated up by the enthusiastic cheers of the audience.

Donate to support Central Vietnam

After a day of fierce competition, the organizing committee awarded the first prize to Suzuka FC, the second prize to Thai Binh FC, the third prize to Hanoi FC, and the fourth prize to 37 Nagoya. The special thing about this tournament is that the winning teams only received cups, flags and medals, not cash prizes.

Accompanying the tournament is a charity program to support the people of the Central region affected by storms and floods. By directly supporting and mobilizing through charity boxes, at the end of the tournament, the organizers have raised more than 70 million VND. This amount will be sent to help people affected by storms and floods in the two provinces of Nghe An and Ha Tinh in the near future.
