U17 Vietnam "held" the World Cup ticket until the 87th minute, but then Hazaa's head shattered the whole World Cup dream.

The third match of Group B was extremely dramatic, it seemed that U17 Vietnam had defeated UAE and U7 Australia surprisingly defeated Japan.

When the match reached the 87th minute, just 3 minutes away from a World Cup ticket, a goal from a set piece situation broke millions of Vietnamese fans.

Meanwhile, in the same match, Australia came from behind to beat Japan 3-2, but Japan still held the top spot, while Australia took second place. Both teams entered the quarterfinals.

So in group B, U17 Vietnam after 3 matches all tied 1-1 and said goodbye.

Another representative of Southeast Asian football, U17 Indonesia, is having a quite successful tournament. U17 Indonesia won their third consecutive victory when they defeated U17 Afghanistan with a score of 2-0, thereby passing the group stage.

Thus, U17 Indonesia has officially won a ticket to the U17 World Cup when holding the top position in the group, even above U17 Korea.

MU recruits a great goalkeeper to replace Andre Onana

The Manchester team is eyeing the number 1 Dutch goalkeeper - Bart Verbruggen to replace Andre Onana.

Onana has made a series of mistakes since moving to Old Trafford in the summer of 2023. Ahead of the match against Lyon, midfielder Matic also mocked Andre Onana as the worst goalkeeper in MU history.

Coach Ruben Amorim expressed concern about his student's instability in goal, so he is considering signing a new goalkeeper next summer.

MU has contacted the Amex Stadium team about the possibility of recruiting the 22-year-old Dutch goalkeeper. However, they face fierce competition from Bayern Munich.

Telegraph revealed that the Bavarian Tigers are also closely monitoring Verbruggen's form and are ready to spend £60 million to bring him to the Allianz Arena.

This season, Verbruggen has started 33 times for Brighton in all competitions and has kept eight clean sheets.

Vietnam futsal team won 3-2 against Saudi Arabia

After this match, the Vietnamese futsal team will host the world's top 7 team, Kazakhstan, on April 13 and 15.

Sancho shines, Chelsea wins big in European Cup

Jadon Sancho provided two assists for Madueke in Chelsea's 3-0 win at Legia Warsaw in the first leg of their Conference League quarter-final. The 25-year-old also ended a run of 15 games without a goal or assist for Chelsea.

This season, Sancho has scored 2 goals and assisted 7 others in 31 games for Chelsea. In the previous two seasons combined, he only assisted 5 goals for Man Utd. However, he still needs to perform better if he wants to continue to stay at Chelsea.

Chelsea will have to buy Sancho outright for between $26 million and $32 million in the summer of 2025. But they can pay $6 million just to send the striker born in 2000 back to Man Utd. The final decision has not yet been made by Chelsea's leadership.

Lyon 2-2 MU result: Sinner Onana

In the first leg of the 2024/25 Europa League quarter-finals, MU led Lyon 2-1 until the 88th minute but ultimately left France with a 2-2 draw due to an unforgivable mistake by goalkeeper Andre Onana.

The two teams continuously had attractive tit-for-tat situations. However, the drama only started in the 88th minute when MU scored to take the lead 2-1.

Just when it seemed that MU had secured victory, in the 90+5 minute, the last minute of extra time, tragedy struck and the focus was on Onana. The Cameroonian goalkeeper did not handle the ball well, causing it to bounce back after a shot from a Lyon player in the penalty area, and striker Rayan Cherki immediately seized the opportunity to rush in and score a close-range equalizer for the home team.

In the end, MU regrettably tied Lyon 2-2 in France and the two teams will determine the winner in the rematch at Old Trafford a week later.
