Vietnam clinch AFF Cup with win over Malaysia
Vietnam won the AFF Cup title for the second time in 10 years after defeating Malaysia 1-0 at the My Dinh National Stadium in the final's second leg on Saturday (December 15) to win 3-2 on aggregate.
Nguyen Anh Duc scored the only goal of the game only after six minutes. The 1-0 win was enough for Vietnam to grab the Cup as both sides shared a 2-2 draw in last Tuesday's first leg in Kuala Lumpur.
Vietnam's South Korean manager Park Hang Seo thanked the fans for their support of his side throughout the tournament.
Thousands of fans flocked to the street of Hanoi to celebrate the title, their first since 2008.
Crowds lit flares, waved flags and honked car horns in a party atmosphere, a rare sight in the country.
Vietnam now have two titles to their name, one ahead of Malaysia, but still behind Thailand and Singapore on five and four titles respectively. (Reuters)
