2014 AFC Futsal: Vietnam 10-4 Tajikistan
(VOV) - Hosts Vietnam crushed Tajikistan 10-4 in their second match on May 2, keeping alive the hope of entering the knock-out round.
As both teams suffered defeats in their opening games, they played cautiously, seeking to gain considerable advantage in their last group match.
It was the host team that applied a pressing tactic throughout the game, scoring five goals in each half.
Vietnamese defenders sometimes lost their control, helping their Tajikistan players to slot in. However, with their second defeat, Tajikistan have little chance to qualify for the quarter-finals.
In another Group A match, Kuwait outperformed Iraq 5-3, maintaining their leading position after two consecutive wins and securing a berth to the knock-out stage.
Vietnam will take on powerhouse Kuwait, while Iraq will play Tajikistan in their last group match.
