Being honored to hold the championship cup in today's match is a very different feeling. I feel proud to witness a new generation continuing the journey of Vietnamese football.
Currently, the My Dinh stadium area continues to welcome more fans. From about 4 pm, fans began to gather crowdedly at the stadium gate areas, preparing to enter the stadium to watch the final match.
