SINGAPORE – The Lions suffered a sickening blow on Boxing Day when they conceded a debatable 101st-minute penalty before what looked to be a 104th-minute knockout punch as they lost 2-0 to Vietnam in the first leg of the Asean Championship semi-finals at the Jalan Besar Stadium on Dec 26. After a resolute display in regulation time, the match turned on a controversial video assistant referee (VAR) decision in added time. Following a defensive miscommunication between goalkeeper Izwan Mahbud and Shakir Hamzah, the VAR adjudged the defender to have handled the ball in the box, and Nguyen Tien Linh successfully dispatched the spot-kick. Three minutes later, Nguyen Hoang Duc’s corner was flicked on by Pham Xuan Manh for Brazil-born Rafaelson to help his adopted country bring home a two-goal advantage for the second leg at the Viet Tri Stadium in Phu Tho on Dec 29, with the away goals rule not applicable. The first leg was played at the Jalan Besar as a late schedule change meant the National Stadium was unavailable for the game and the rest of the tournament, having already been booked for concerts in this period.
