Asian Games football: Vietnam beat Bahrain 3-1 in their opener

Vietnam upset Bahrain 3-1 in their first match of the Asian Games in China’s Guangzhou Monday before Iran crushed Turkmenistan 4-1 to take the lead in Group B. 

Dinh Thanh Trung fired for Vietnam after taking the ball from playmaker Pham Thanh Luong in the 34th minute at the Guangdong People’s Stadium. 

The Vietnam side’s lead made it easier for them to play than during the early minutes when they had to struggle against more pressure. 

The second half started and Trung challenged Bahrain goalkeeper Ahmed Mushaima with a free kick but the keeper denied. 

Midfielder Nguyen Trong Hoang broadened the gap with his goal in the 72nd minute from a prompt counter attack set up by Vietnam keeper Bui Tan Truong. 

Striker Nguyen Anh Duc secured the victory for the Vietnamese with a goal into the empty net in the 88th minute as the Bahrain goalie denied Thanh Trung’s penalty kick. 

Bahrain earned their consolation goal also from a penalty kick in the injury time. 

Striker Sayed Hashim converted the penalty spot against Vietnam keeper Truong.
