HANOI (28 June 2016) – Thai Son Nam FC got a dose of reality ahead of the AFF Futsal Club Championship early next month when they fell on penalties to Thai Son Bac in the final of the HCM City Futsal Open this week.
The score at the end of regulation was 2-2 with Hoang Tuan Vu (3rd minute) and That Phi (23rd) finding the net for Thai Son Bac and Tran Long Vu (21st) and Thai Huy (37th) scoring for Thai Son Nam.
Thai Son Back emerged victorious in the penalty shootout with Thai Son Bac keeper Nguyen Van Huy blocking the attempts from Saul Campana and Artur Yusunov while captain Nguyen Bao Quan missed his.
Thai Son Bac win 1-0.
“We are in a heavy training period in preparation for the ASEAN tournament next month in Myanmar. Our two foreigners have not integrated with the whole team yet, while their teammates were under pressure. It is understandable for a loss of Thai Son Nam,” said Tran Anh Tu, the owner of Thai Son Nam.
