Unbelievable luck of U17 Vietnam against Australia
The crossbar saved U17 Vietnam three times in the match against Australia.
Before the confrontation with U17 Australia, Vietnam has a mental advantage as it often wins against its opponents in youth competitions. This is the basis for waiting for U17 Vietnam to have a successful opening match against U17 Australia.
After several consecutive attacks, U17 Australia had a chance to open the scoring in the 29th minute. Australia's Tatu was fouled in the penalty area and the Korean referee blew a penalty. Macnicol's shot was very strong, causing the ball to bounce off the crossbar and hit the bottom of the goal before bouncing out.
In slow motion footage, the ball appeared to have not crossed the line. Some other opinions said the ball had crossed the line. Macnicol pointed to confirm that the ball had crossed the line, but female referee Kim Yu Jeong determined that there was no goal for Australia U17.
In the first half, Australia had 10 shots and 6 corner kicks. Most of the time the ball was only on the U17 Vietnam field. The score of 1-0 for Australia can be said to be quite lucky for U17 Vietnam, including a missed penalty kick in the 29th minute.
In the first minute of the second half, Max Anatasio's shot hit the crossbar of U17 Vietnam. This missed shot probably brought great regret to Max Anatasio, as U17 Vietnam equalized three minutes later. Duy Khang shot into the Australian net when goalkeeper Ajanovic did not close the angle well.
It can be said that U17 Vietnam had a very lucky match, while Australia was unlucky in scoring. In the end, the two teams drew 1-1.
