Vietnam U19 women enter Southeast Asian finals
Drawing 1-1 with Myanmar, the Vietnam U19 women's team won the right to enter the final of the 2014 Southeast Asian U19 Women's Championship.
Because they have a better goal difference than their opponents, Vietnam's U19 women only need to draw with Myanmar's U19 women to win a ticket to the final to meet Thailand again.
However, coach Nguyen Duy Hung still advocated for his players to play offensively in search of a victory. The U19 Vietnam women's team continuously put pressure on the opponent's field and striker Hoai Luong twice hit the crossbar.
Despite many attacks but not scoring, U19 Vietnam women's team almost conceded a goal in the 23rd minute. In an attempt to clear the ball, Hoai Luong sent the ball right to goalkeeper Hai Yen's position, but fortunately, the goalkeeper was able to react in time to save the goal.
In the 44th minute, the score was opened for the U19 women's team of Vietnam after player Khin Pyae Lin awkwardly put the ball into her own net, helping the U19 women's team of Vietnam take the lead. That was also the score of the first 45 minutes.

In the second half, heavy rain greatly affected the quality of the match. The attacks and coordination of the players of both teams were slow and inaccurate. However, the Myanmar players still persistently tried to attack. Finally, all their efforts were rewarded when in the 64th minute, Wai Zin Hnin finished quite hard to score the equalizer, bringing the match back to the starting line.
The final minutes of the match were very difficult due to heavy rain, so no more goals were scored. 1-1 was the final score of the match.
With this draw, Vietnam has registered its name in the final match to meet host Thailand again due to the advantage in the secondary index compared to Myanmar even though they both have 7 points.
Thus, Myanmar will compete for third place with Singapore in the match taking place at 4pm on August 26. The final match between Thailand and Vietnam will take place at 7pm on the same day at Rajamangala Stadium./.
