In the second half, Myanmar players played better but also committed many malicious fouls. As for U18 Vietnam, coach Hoang Anh Tuan's players still created a good formation and were ready to defend against the home team's attacks.
However, after a series of offensive situations created by both sides, in the 73rd minute, the score was equalized 1-1 for the home team Myanmar. It was a direct free kick shot that went over the wall by player number 8 Kaung Khant.
With the equalizer, Myanmar rose up and forced U18 Vietnam to continuously defend. Finally, the worst scenario happened to coach Hoang Anh Tuan and his team. In the 86th minute, YE Li Nie made a silly mistake when he did not handle the situation decisively, giving Moe Aung a free goal to raise the score to 2-1 for U18 Myanmar.
The U18 Vietnam goalkeeper will be very regretful because in the remaining minutes, the home team could not equalize and had to accept defeat. With this result, U18 Vietnam was officially eliminated and had to watch the two opponents Myanmar and Indonesia enter the semi-finals./.
