Facing the Indonesian futsal team (ranked 28th in the world ), the Vietnamese futsal team, 6 places lower, was expected to surpass their opponent from the archipelago country, but was unable to do so, and lost 0-2 and accepted the runner-up position.
Rejuvenating Highlights
This is the third time the Vietnamese futsal team has participated in the Southeast Asian final, but also the third time it has finished second. The previous two times were in 2009 and 2012. Meanwhile, the Indonesian futsal team won the championship for the second time.
According to experts, the reason why the Vietnamese futsal team could not defeat Indonesia was due to many reasons such as many key players such as Minh Tri, Duc Hoa... were injured, so the team's strength was somewhat reduced. However, the bright spot of the Vietnamese futsal team at the 2024 Southeast Asian tournament is that many young players have been given the opportunity to play by coach Diego Giustozzi, and have asserted themselves.
Young players such as Dinh Cong Vien, Nhan Gia Hung (2002), Vu Ngoc Anh (2004), Nguyen Da Hai (2005)... played quite confidently when they were put on the field and scored goals, even decisive goals, creating turning points in some matches.
Coach Hector Souto of the Indonesian futsal team said: "I have been following the young players of Vietnam for a long time, and I can say that the Vietnamese futsal team is playing better every day with the young players."

What can we see from the Indonesian futsal model?
According to the head coach of Indonesia, the source of futsal players in Indonesia is currently quite abundant, many players have quite good professional quality so the quality of the Indonesian team is always guaranteed.
In Indonesia, the national futsal championship attracts a large number of fans. Indonesian futsal attracts the "king" of world futsal, the Brazilian legend - Ricardinho and a number of other world names to join and compete in the domestic tournament of the archipelago country. Like Vietnamese football, the Indonesian national futsal championship focuses on the use of foreign players, thereby helping to improve the professional level of domestic players. The Indonesian national futsal championship is run very professionally and systematically, with promoted and relegated teams, and well-invested training and competition facilities.
Meanwhile, former coach of Vietnam futsal team - Mr. Miguel Rodrigo - is worried that the Vietnamese domestic league has too few good foreign players, as well as not having many foreign coaches, making it impossible for Vietnamese futsal to improve. Recently, Thai Son Bac Club, under the leadership of a Spanish strategist, has shown positive signs when introducing new players to the national team.
According to insiders, now is not the time to focus on the Vietnamese futsal team participating in the World Cup or winning the Southeast Asian championship, but rather to pay more attention to the level and domestic playground, and to soon have fundamental measures for the sustainable development of Vietnamese futsal. Only then can the professional quality of the national team be guaranteed and raised to a higher level.
