Park Hang-Seo-Ho pushed Malaysia to the fervor of the home fans who dyed the stadium red, but to no avail.
Manager Park Hang-seo, who swallowed a disappointment as the decisive shot in the first half was blocked by the goalkeeper, pulled the reins of the attack with passionate guidance in the second half, but the opposing defense did not break through.
The game was finally decided in the 6th minute of the second half while a fierce battle ensued that both teams complained of muscle cramps.
Nguyen Thien Lin, who took a free kick from the left flank as a wild card, jumped up and hit it straight into the head.
The home fans were enthusiastic, and coach Park Hang-seo worked hard to suppress the joy and suppress the excitement of the team.
In the end, Vietnam, who kept the winning goal, advanced to the final with a 1-0 victory.
Manager Park Hang-seo, who made history by leading Vietnam to the top of this tournament for the first time in 60 years in 2019, will challenge Thailand for the second consecutive title this coming Sunday.
The much-anticipated South Korean commander-in-chief final match failed.
Indonesia, led by coach Shin Tae-yong, performed well against Thailand, who placed first in Group B, but failed to advance to the final by conceding the winning goal in the first half of extra time and losing 1-0.
