About three hours before the first leg of the AFF Suzuki Cup 2016 semi-final, crowds of people flocked to My Dinh National Stadium.
 |
| Fans in groups, carrying national flags, headed towards the center of Vietnamese football today: My Dinh Stadium, where the home team will host Indonesia in the second leg of the semi-finals of the Southeast Asian Nations Championship. |
 |
| In the first leg, coach Nguyen Huu Thang and his team lost 1-2. If they want to qualify for the final, they must win at least 1-0 or by two goals or more today. A passionate fan has turned his car into a miniature football field, with many impressive images of Vietnamese players and predicting a 2-0 victory for the home team. |
 |
| On the roads... |
 |
| ... the crowd was growing larger and larger. A noticeable feature was that they were all wearing or decorating in the traditional red-yellow colors. |
 |
| About 1,000 riot police were mobilized to ensure security and order at the entrances and stands, especially stand A - where high-ranking leaders came to watch and cheer. |
 |
| Vehicles passing through must also pass through the inspection machine. |
 |
| Under the control of security, people lined up to enter the stadium in order. |
 |
| Everyone must go through the magnetic strip gate and security scanner. Any suspicious cases are separated for inspection. |
 |
| Ancillary services such as selling flags, shirts, face stickers... have also appeared. |
 |
| The atmosphere around the stadium was very hot and crowded, even though it was a working day. A fan in Hanoi shared that he had to take a day off from work at noon to come to the stadium to cheer for his team. Meanwhile, fans from neighboring provinces and cities such as Hung Yen, Hai Duong... marched to the capital from 12 noon. |
