(Baonghean.vn) - The referee of the second leg of the AFF Cup 2022 final is the 'nemesis' of Thailand; Man Utd defeated Man City with a controversial goal; Hanoi Club announced their farewell to Doan Van Hau... are notable sports news in the past 24 hours.

The referee in charge of the second leg of the final is the "nemesis" of Thailand.

The Southeast Asian Football Federation (AFF) has assigned Japanese referee Jumpei Iida to officiate the second leg of the 2022 AFF Cup final at Thammasat Stadium. This "black shirt king" often does not bring luck to the Thai team.

Japanese referee Jumpei Iida is 41 years old this year, and has been a FIFA referee since 2011. He was assigned to officiate the second leg of the 2022 AFF Cup final. In the past, he has refereed many matches of Thailand and often did not bring luck to this team.

Specifically, referee Jumpei Iida officiated in the semi-final match of King's Cup 2019 between Vietnam and Thailand, the third-place match of King's Cup between Thailand and India, and the first leg of the final match of AFF Cup 2016 between Thailand and Indonesia. As a result, the Thai team lost all of these matches.

On the contrary, this Japanese referee has a great relationship with Vietnamese football. In addition to the semi-final match of the King's Cup 2019 in which Vietnam won with a minimum score against Thailand, Jumpei Iida also officiated the match in which the Vietnamese team defeated the UAE 1-0 in the second qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup in Asia at My Dinh Stadium.

That was the match where this referee showed a red card to a player from the UAE side. He also officiated the match between Hanoi Club and Kitchee (Hong Kong, China) in the framework of the AFC Champions League 2017.

In the first leg of the AFF Cup 2022 final, Vietnam conceded two goals to Thailand and had to work very hard to maintain a 2-2 draw. Thus, Coach Park Hang-seo and his team must win or have a high-scoring draw against Thailand if they want to be crowned champions.

The second leg of the 2022 AFF Cup final between Thailand and Vietnam will take place at 7:30 p.m. on January 16 at Thammasat (Thailand).
