The 2-1 victory over Vietnam’s U19 futsal squad is causing genuine joy and excitement among Thai media, along with a unique reaction.
Thailand’s U19 futsal team secured a 2-1 win against Vietnam’s U19 futsal team in an emotional match at the Southeast Asian tournament. What stands out is not only the narrow scoreline but also the Thai media’s intense focus, with continuous updates about the game on official platforms, even though this was merely a U19 level match within Southeast Asia.
The match started with a surprise as Vietnam’s U19 team scored very early. However, in the second half, Thailand scored two consecutive goals to overturn the result. Following these crucial moments, Thai futsal media accounts immediately posted videos of the goals, celebrations, and player reactions, allowing fans to relive nearly every moment even long after the match had ended.
Not stopping at in-game updates, the Changsuek page also posted a thank you message to fans, highlighting the importance of support from the stands and viewing it as a major motivation for the U19 team to advance further. This shows that Thai youth futsal is taken seriously, and it’s not just regarded as an ordinary win.
The context makes the attention even more notable since previously, Thai football suffered a painful defeat against Vietnam’s U22 team in the SEA Games 33 final held at home, despite once leading 2-0. Therefore, this win against a young Vietnamese team carries some morale-boosting significance.
The intense updates from Thai media reflect two things: first, that Thai youth futsal is receiving investment and close monitoring; second, that matches between Vietnam and Thailand teams, at any level, always attract special attention, enough to engage both the media and fans in the Land of Smiles.
