HÀ NỘI — Việt Nam’s futsal team lost to Indonesia 3-1 in the third-place playoff of the AFF Futsal Championship in Indonesia on Sunday.

Việt Nam dominated the game early and led through Đặng Anh Tài’s opening goal.

Hosts Indonesia fought back strongly and before the first half ended, Andri Kustiawan beat Vietnamese goalie Văn Ý to equalise.

After the break, Indonesia immediately doubled the score via Muhammad Subhan.

The Vietnamese side were on the back foot and suffered another blow when Aditya Muhammad Rasyid pounced to make it 3-1 in the 31st minute.

In the remaining time, Việt Nam pushed forward to get back into the game, but to no avail.

Việt Nam finished fourth in the same event held last year following a loss against Myanmar in the bronze medal match. — VNS
