The Vietnamese erupted with joy after Vietnam beat the Azkals

Millions of Vietnamese football fans poured out into streets from every corner of the country to celebrate the victory of the home side after Vietnam knocked out the Azkals at the second leg semifinal of the 2018 AFF Cup Champion. This triumph helps Vietnam advance in the final match against Malaysia, who has just defeated Thailand in a choking match on Wednesday 5 December.

This is the first time for Vietnam to advance to the 2018 AFF Cup Champion in a decade and it is why Vietnam seems to be on a national festival that people regardless of age, sex, local or international people who are living and working in Vietnam took participation at.

On the first leg semifinal at Bacolod, Filipino's national stadium, Vietnam defeated the Azkals at the score of 2-1 that made Coach Eriksson's team determine to beat Vietnam with a hope to enter the final with Malaysia. However, with current human resources, Eriksson couldn't turn the situation. At the result, his side had to suffer the loss of 2-1 score. However, his coaching talent has made a great change in the Azkals's qualification that will be demonstrated at the Asian Cup 2019.
