Vietnam goalkeeper saves penalty in international debut match

MINH PHONG |

Vietnam goalkeeper - Ho Tung Han successfully blocked a penalty in his debut match for Balestier Khalsa in the Singapore National Cup.

Goalkeeper Ho Tung Han officially plays for Balestier Khalsa - Singapore from January 2025. But now, after 2 months of signing the contract, the player born in 2003 has had his first match for his home team.

He was chosen by the coach to start in the match between Balestier Khalsa and Pathum United (Thailand) in the Singapore Cup (Singapore invited foreign teams to participate). Against a strong opponent, Ho Tung Han conceded an early goal in the 14th minute when player Patrick Gustavsson opened the scoring for Pathum United.

In the 45th minute, Balestier Khalsa suffered a penalty. Ho Tung Han made an accurate assessment and successfully blocked the penalty. However, the lack of flexibility of the Balestier Khalsa defender created an opportunity for Suksum to score, raising the score to 2-0 for the Thai team.

In the end, Balestier Khalsa lost 1-2 to Pathum United, temporarily ranked 3rd in Group B with 3 points. Meanwhile, the away team Pathum United leads with 7 points, but has played 1 more match.

After his debut match in the Singapore Cup, Ho Tung Han was encouraged by head coach Peter de Roo. Because the club has up to 4 goalkeepers, he has to be flexible, alternating between Mun, Chew, Ahmad and Tung Han.

Ho Tung Han was born in 2003, registered with Da Nang club. He was linked with a loan deal from Balestier Khalsa for four months until the end of the 2024-25 season. In the past 2 months, the 21-year-old goalkeeper has been competing in the Singapore U21 tournament to maintain his ball feel.

For Tung Han, going abroad is to find opportunities to play as well as experience a new environment. The player's goal in 2003 was to participate in the 33rd SEA Games with U22 Vietnam.

According to Lao Dong, Tung Han has been contacted by representatives of the Vietnam Football Federation, preparing for the force in 2025.
