Vietnam and India played out a 1-1 draw in the friendly that was played last night at the Thien Truong Stadium in Nam Dinh.

Vietnam head coach Kim Sang-sik was using the match to polish the team ahead of the ASEAN Mitsubishi Electric Cup at the end of the year.

After numerous chances and also a missed penalty, Vietnam finally found the space to score in the 38th minute with Vi Hao making good on a corner kick.

However, India pressed on into the second half and in the 53rd minute, Farukh Haji found the equaliser to put both teams back on level.

ā€œI was quite satisfied with the first half. Even though we conceded a goal in the second half, the players still played hard until the last minute,ā€ said Vietnam head coach Kim Sang-sik.

ā€œWe are still considering many things for the ASEAN Mitsubishi Electric Cup. We will make appropriate adjustments, whether it is to play with three defenders or four defenders.ā€
