The final is worth watching

After a 2-2 draw in the first leg of the final, both CAHN and the home team Buriram United are putting all their efforts into the rematch at 7:30 p.m. tonight (May 21) to be able to lift the trophy of the first-ever regional club tournament.

With what was shown at Hang Day Stadium, as well as the meeting in the group stage, the rematch at Buriram is highly anticipated when, besides the desire, both sides also proved their professional ability as expected by the fans.

Whether Quang Hai and his teammates will bring home the championship or Theerathon and Buriram United will be crowned at home will have to wait, but this will definitely be a match worth watching.

The match between Quang Hai's CAHN Club and Buriram United with Theerathon has many meanings.

And the competition that defines the position of Vietnamese - Thai football

Earlier this year, after being blocked by Thailand twice in a row from winning the ASEAN Cup, Vietnam had a more satisfying victory when they defeated the “War Elephants” in both the first and second leg of the final to return to the regional throne.

However, the victory after more than a decade on Thailand's field that the Vietnamese team created was suddenly not as memorable as the sideline incidents that occurred in the second leg of the final match at Rajamangala.

For a long time, the football matches between Vietnam and Thailand have always created the most attraction and excitement in the region. And even at the club level, the confrontation between CAHN Club and Buriram United is of great interest at the moment.

This is also considered a competition between the two strongest football teams in the region.

This match is not simply a battle for the championship trophy between the two best teams in the region, but also plays a symbolic role in the long-standing competition between Vietnamese and Thai football over many years.

Although there were times when the Vietnamese team seemed to be on par with Thailand, the period of dominance was not long lasting, so it can be seen that we are still not equal to the biggest rival in the region.

Not only the national team, the club level is similar, even in terms of general achievements, strength and aspiration to reach the continental level... Vietnamese football is still far behind Thailand.

Because of these things, a victory that CAHN creates in Thailand will demonstrate the development and affirm that the path that Vietnamese football is taking is correct as well as ready to level the gap in the near future.
