Iran boss impressed by Vietnam spirit in Asian Games defeat
Iran coach Nelo Vingada was disappointed by his team’s 1-4 defeat against Vietnam during their men’s football (soccer) opener at the 17th Asian Games on Monday, but was impressed by their rivals’ spirit in the game.
Iran coach Nelo Vingada speaks during a press conference after their men’s football (soccer) opener
against Vietnam at the 17th Asian Games in Incheon on September 15, 2014.
Vingada was dazzled by the style of play and strong spirit of the under-23 Vietnamese players, the Iran boss said at the post-match press conference.
The Portuguese coach added that he was not shocked by the under-23 Iranian men’s loss, as he had predicted prior to the game that they could lose.
The Vietnamese players outplayed their Iranian rivals, Vingada admitted.
Vietnam, considered the underdogs in the clash with the gold medal favorites, took a 2-0 lead in the first half and scored two more goals in the second to seal a victory that was unexpected to Vietnamese fans and the press.
Iran managed to reduce the lead to 1-2 in the 63rd minute after a penalty shot, but failed to manage a comeback win.
Vingada said that at certain points his men could have done more to win from behind after the penalty goal by captain Mosalman Mohsen.
But the Vietnamese players had such a strong spirit that they played even better after that goal, he added.
Substitute Phi Son lifted the score to 3-1 with a well-taken goal 23 minutes after the break, and Hoang Thinh sealed it 4-1 for Vietnam in the 82nd minute after his free kick struck an Iranian defender and rebounded into the goal frame.
The Iran coach admitted that his players lost their temper toward the end of the match because “they are too young.”
Vingada also praised goalkeeper Buu Ngoc, striker Mac Hong Quan and the Vietnamese defenders. These players totally outperformed his men when it came to fighting for the ball, the Portuguese coach said.
Vietnam’s coach, Toshiya Miura, said he was also astonished by his players’ performance.
The Japanese-born coach said he did believe the team would win, but was stunned to see his men adapt to a new formation so quickly.
Many South Korean reporters also expressed their amazement at Vietnam’s triumph over Iran at the press conference after the match.
They questioned coach Miura as to what he had done to the Vietnamese men, to which he replied that it was speed and stamina training that mattered.
Without stamina and fitness, Vietnam would have seen Iran equalize the match in the second half, the coach said.
The Vietnamese will play their last Group H game against Kyrgyzstan on September 22, while Iran will take on that same team on September 18.
The two teams with the most points in the three-team group will advance to the round of 16, scheduled to begin on September 25.
Twenty-nine teams are playing in the men's football event. Group A to Group E have four teams each, while Group F, G and H each consists of three teams.
The 17th Asian Games Incheon 2014 is hosted by South Korea from September 19 to October 4.

I'd love to see Vietnamese ladies dressed up in kimono
Something says Yukata ?
Yup, that's the light version. Very common to wear during summer, or just at home.
This is what I usually wear at home. Its light, and easy to take off, lol.

You know the festival in South Vietnam, which has the temperature for entire year about 30 Celsius degrees
One thing i've always liked to ask a Vietnamese. The weather and temperature in Vietnam is hot, humid. Yet most Vietnamese are very light skinned. The Vietnamese people i know here in USA are fair skinned, very similar to Chinese, and even as light skinned as us Japanese.
I always wondered this. Since Cambodians, Thai, Burmese, and Filipinos are darker skinned; more brown in complexion.
Vietnamese girl,
PS. she can be mistaken even for Japanese or Chinese.
