Khuat Van Khang shows off his English skills, U.23 Vietnam scores an important goal

In the 60th minute, Dinh Bac received the ball on the edge of the U.23 Laos penalty area, broke through and shot with his left foot, hitting the net of the U.23 Laos goalkeeper, scoring the second goal for U.23 Vietnam.

Immediately the linesman raised his flag to signal offside. The U.23 Vietnam players and coach Kim Sang-sik reacted strongly to the referee's decision. As a result, an assistant and Mr. Kim himself received yellow cards from the referee.

During that "hot oil and fire" moment, captain Khuat Van Khang calmly calmed his teammates, stood and talked for about 2 minutes with the main referee Rustam Lutfullin. It was great that midfielder number 11 successfully convinced the referee to "turn around" and press the sideline flag to recognize the goal for Dinh Bac. There was no VAR in the match, so Khang's handling was very timely.

Thus, U.23 Vietnam temporarily re-established the lead over U.23 Laos with a score of 2-1 and Dinh Bac completed his double. However, the coaching staff of U.23 Laos is reacting to the referee.

Head coach Ha Hyeok-jun received a yellow card, before referee Rustam Lutfullin patiently explained to the entire U.23 Laos coaching staff the reason for recognizing Dinh Bac's goal.

In fact, when Dinh Bac took the shot, Quoc Viet was standing under the U.23 Laos defense but number 9 of U.23 Vietnam proactively jumped to avoid it.

A FIFA referee said: "Quoc Viet was in an offside position but the referee recognized Dinh Bac's goal because Viet's offside position did not affect the goalkeeper's ability to play the ball."
