Son - Hên scores, Vietnam wins against Bangladesh

(Football result) The Vietnamese national team delivered a dominant performance by easily defeating Bangladesh 3-0 at Hang Day Stadium, thereby gaining favorable momentum ahead of upcoming important challenges.

On March 26 evening (Vietnam time), the Vietnamese national team delivered a convincing performance by defeating the Bangladesh team 3-0 in a FIFA Days friendly match at Hang Day Stadium.

Right after the kickoff whistle, the home team started proactively and quickly solidified their advantage. In the 7th minute, from a corner kick on the left side, Tuan Hai shot, the ball hit a Bangladesh player and changed direction, leaving the goalkeeper helpless, opening the score for Vietnam. The early goal helped Coach Kim Sang Sik's team play with increasing enthusiasm.

By the 15th minute, Vietnam continued to effectively utilize set-piece situations. From a precise lofted ball, Xuan Manh intelligently positioned himself before heading the ball into Bangladesh's net, raising the score to 2-0. The match situation was entirely controlled by the home team as Bangladesh nearly couldn't develop their play.

In the 40th minute, Hai Long made his mark with a classy individual move. This midfielder confidently broke into the penalty area and then unleashed a sharp angled shot, sealing the score at 3-0 within the first half. Earlier, Ngoc Bao also had a dangerous long-range shot forcing the Bangladesh goalkeeper to struggle to save.

Entering the second half, Vietnam continued to maintain pressure. In the 50th minute, the home team completely controlled the match situation, continuously pressing the opponent. However, lack of precision in final moments caused several opportunities to be missed regrettably. Khuat Van Khang had a favorable cross in the 76th minute but Xuan Son failed to touch the ball. Earlier, Hoang Hen and Xuan Son also missed some notable chances.

The most regrettable was Hoang Hen's volley in the 90th minute when the ball hit the post, while Xuan Son also had a shot that went wide of the goal in the 83rd minute. Additionally, Coach Kim Sang Sik's players fell into the offside trap twice consecutively in the 66th minute.

Although no more goals were scored, Vietnam still preserved a 3-0 victory when the referee blew the whistle to end the match. This was a perfect warm-up, helping the "Golden Star Warriors" prepare well in both form and spirit for the upcoming challenges.

Analysis Vietnam vs Bangladesh: Waiting for a new test

The Vietnamese national team enters the friendly match against Bangladesh with notable experiments in personnel and tactics. This is not only an opportunity for Coach Kim Sang Sik and his team to improve their FIFA ranking, but also serves as a comprehensive rehearsal before the rematch with Malaysia on March 31.

The Korean coach hinted about the plan to utilize the squad, stating he will give opportunities to many new faces for comprehensive evaluation. Notably, he considered pairing Hoang Hen and Xuan Son in the attack, possibly as a striker duo or with one as a winger, aiming to bring fresh dynamics given the domestic forwards' current lack of peak form.

Additionally, names like Dinh Trong, Van Hau along with U23 players such as Nhat Minh, Khuat Van Khang or young goalkeeper Trung Kien are also included in the utilization plan. This is an important opportunity for players to prove themselves, as their performance against Bangladesh will significantly impact selection chances for the match against Malaysia and tournaments in 2026.

Although it's a friendly, the Vietnamese national team still aims to play seriously, focusing on coordination, tactical execution, attacking efficiency, and defensive solidity. With the home advantage at Hang Day Stadium, Coach Kim Sang Sik's squad targets a victory to build positive momentum.

Expected lineup Vietnam vs Bangladesh

• Vietnam:Van Lam, Dinh Trong, Viet Anh, Duy Manh, Van Hau, Quang Hai, Hoang Duc, Van Khang, Hoang Hen, Viet Cuong, Xuan Son.
