Vietnam’s coach Park Hang Seo was forced to make several changes, but the hosts still controlled the game from the kick-off, creating a number of opportunities in the first half, and Van Toan, Duc Chinh and Thanh Chung all missed chances in the last ten minutes to close the game.

It was left to substitute defender Doan Van Hau to score the winner in the 89th minute from long distance.

The win secures the title for Vietnam over Uzbekistan, Oman and Palestine.

In the previous match, the current AFC U23 champions Uzbekistan were beaten 2-1 by U23 Palestine, who were defeated by Vietnam on Friday.

Vietnam will face Uzbekistan, who beat them in the final of AFC U23 Championship in China early this year, on Tuesday at 7:30pm (Hanoi time).
