Which moment of Vietnamese athletes at SEA Games 32 touched you the most?

The Vietnamese sports delegation has excellently won the overall title at the 32nd SEA Games with 136 gold medals, 105 silver medals and 118 bronze medals. In which, the glorious moments always come with emotional moments imbued with the spirit of sportsmanship and dedication. So in your opinion, what is the most touching image of Vietnamese athletes at the regional congress taking place in Cambodia?

Athlete Nguyen Thi Oanh

Nguyen Thi Oanh is one of the most outstanding athletes of the Vietnamese sports delegation. She has brought home 4 gold medals in the athletics track in medium and long distances. In particular, the "little pepper" of Vietnamese athletics has made many audiences admire her perseverance when winning 2 consecutive gold medals in the 1,500 m and 3,000 m obstacle course.

Right after winning the 1,500 m, Oanh had to prepare for the women's 3,000 m hurdles.

Swift, persistent running steps helped Nguyen Thi Oanh win her second gold medal after 30 minutes.

It is worth mentioning that the two events that Oanh participated in and won two consecutive gold medals were only 15 minutes apart due to the scheduling error of the organizing committee. That is, the Vietnamese female athlete had just won the 1,500m race, and had just stopped breathing when she had to compete in a longer and more strenuous 3,000m obstacle course. However, the athlete born in 1995 still excellently finished first.

Athlete Nguyen Huy Hoang

Nguyen Huy Hoang is also one of the elite faces of Vietnamese sports. He brought home 2 gold medals at the 32nd SEA Games in the 400m and 1,500m freestyle events. However, similar to Nguyen Thi Oanh, Huy Hoang also had to go through an unprecedented situation due to the awkward competition schedule from the organizing committee.

Nguyen Huy Hoang hurriedly prepared for the 200m butterfly after winning the gold medal in the 400m freestyle. The coaches helped the swimmer from Quang Binh massage and recover his muscles.

Just a few minutes after winning the 400m freestyle, the swimmer from Quang Binh had to quickly go to the next pool to recover and prepare for the final of the 200m butterfly event right after. The coach had to remind him to breathe evenly. Nguyen Huy Hoang raced against time, the coaching staff quickly massaged him so he could recover in time and return to the green track to compete again. However, due to the time being too close, Huy Hoang was not in the group of medalists in the 200m butterfly event.

Athlete Nguyen Thi Ninh

The weather in Cambodia in early May was very hot. The heat seemed to be a "torture" for outdoor competitions, especially in the marathon, when athletes had to run more than 42 km in temperatures of nearly 40 degrees Celsius.

Athlete Nguyen Thi Ninh fainted from exhaustion after trying to reach the finish line of the 42km marathon.

In Siem Reap, athlete Nguyen Thi Ninh did not give up even though she was exhausted in the final rounds. When she crossed the finish line, Ninh fainted on the spot. Immediately, the medical team of the organizing committee provided first aid, injected oxygen, and applied ice to help Ninh regain consciousness. Ninh suffered from heat stroke and dehydration, so she could not stand after the competition. The coaching staff actively massaged Ninh to prevent muscle strain. After about 5 minutes, the doctors planned to put Ninh in an ambulance to go to the hospital. And fortunately, nothing happened to Nguyen Thi Ninh.

Athlete Nguyen Thi Tam

Before the 32nd SEA Games, Nguyen Thi Tam was the runner-up of the 2023 World Boxing Cup. Therefore, she was also expected to bring home a gold medal for Vietnamese sports at the Southeast Asian Games in Cambodia. However, an unexpected injury caused Tam to miss the opportunity to win the championship.

Nguyen Thi Tam limped out of the ring in regret.

On May 6, Nguyen Thi Tam played very well in the first round when she defeated the Thai athlete with a score of 4-1. In the second round, she was leading with a score of 3-2 when she was injured after being hit in the knee by her opponent. Perhaps because she did not know Tam was in pain, the Thai athlete performed an additional move, sitting on top of the Vietnamese boxer. Nguyen Thi Tam was unable to move and the referee awarded the victory to the Thai athlete. As a result, Tam completely tore the anterior cruciate ligament in her left leg. This is a fairly serious injury and requires a long treatment time.

Athlete Tran Thi Thuy Nga

In the 36th minute of the SEA Games 32 final match between the Vietnamese women's team and Myanmar on the evening of May 15, defender Tran Thi Thuy Nga fell after colliding with an opposing striker. The Thai Nguyen Club player sprained her ankle and had to seek medical attention.

Center back Thuy Nga was injured and had to leave the field and was taken to the emergency room.

After a few minutes of care on the field, Thuy Nga was taken by ambulance to a hospital in the capital Phnom Penh. According to the initial diagnosis of the doctors, Thuy Nga suffered damage to the medial collateral ligament, the medial patellar ligament of her right knee. With this result, Thuy Nga did not need surgery but only rehabilitation exercises combined with physical therapy.
