Quang Hai enters the top scorer list, making history in Vietnamese football
Striker Nguyen Quang Hai became the first player to score in two consecutive matches of U23 Vietnam at the 2018 AFC U23 Championship. Not only that, this player from Hanoi FC also made it into the top scorer of the tournament.
In his first U23 Asian Cup finals, striker Nguyen Quang Hai played brilliantly. After a cross-angle shot into the net of U23 Korea, he continued to make U23 Australia goalkeeper Paul Izzo the next "victim" with a surprise kick near the 16m50 box, sending the ball hitting a defender's foot and flying into the far corner.
Hero Nguyen Quang Hai.
Quang Hai's goal not only helped U23 Vietnam have their first victory when participating in the U23 Asian Cup but also set an unprecedented milestone for this individual player. Accordingly, Quang Hai became the first Vietnamese player to score 2 goals, even in 2 consecutive matches at the U23 Asian Cup. Before Quang Hai, Duy Manh, Cong Phuong and Tuan Anh also scored at the U23 Asian Cup 2 years ago in Qatar. But they only had 1 goal for themselves.
With 2 goals so far, Quang Hai is also temporarily leading the list of "Top scorers" at the tournament, along with Baha' Faisal (U23 UAE), Safawi Rasid (U23 Malaysia), George Blackwood (U23 Australia) and Ko Itakura (U23 Japan). On January 17, U23 Vietnam will play the final match of the group stage against U23 Syria and Vietnamese fans really want this striker to continue to show his talent.
