Vietnam aim at victory against Thailand in ASEAN football final first leg

The first leg takes place at My Dinh National Stadium in Hanoi at 7:30 pm and is broadcast live on VTV5, VTV Can Tho, and FPT Play. Park said at Thursday’s meeting that during five years of coaching Vietnam’s U23 and national teams, he only lost one match against Thailand in the first leg of the 2020 AFF Championship semifinal.  His target is to “claim this debt” from the Thai team, who went on to claim the 2020 trophy after beating Vietnam 2-0 on aggregate in two legs of the semi. He also wants to win the championship as a gift for supporters of the Vietnamese football team and fans at home.

Vietnam Bans Barbie Movie for Showcasing Chinas Nine-Dash Line Map

Vi Kien Thanh, head of the Department of Cinema, under the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, on July 3 informed the media of the decision made by the National Council for Film Appraisal and Classification after a review of the movie. The movie, directed by Greta Gerwig and featuring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, was expected to hit the screen from July 21, the same day as in the United States, but cinema chains across Vietnam did not include it in their upcoming list, even as July already started, which sparked concerns over its availability.
