Football & Myanmar Experience Journey

29/09/2014

No other sport in the world is as full of emotions as football, where joy and sadness are just a hair's breadth away. Every time the ball rolls, millions of hearts hold their breath to watch, because it is not just a sport, but also a sacred pride when cheering wholeheartedly for the flag and the shirt.

From the special planes "bringing bells to strike foreign lands"...

In the 90s of the last century, when Vietnamese football was in its golden age with the “golden generation”, wherever they went, the names of famous players were always discussed. If in big cities at that time there were venues to watch football on big screens, then in the countryside, every time there was a SEA Games or Tiger Cup (later called AFF Cup), the young and old gathered around a 14-inch black and white TV, straining their eyes to follow every move of the ball.

No matter what color their team wore, fans could recognize them because they knew the jersey numbers and the body shape of each player by heart. In a time when the internet was very strange and Google had never existed, the names, backgrounds of each player and the basic rules were well known to people who had never left the bamboo village.

Now, from the city to the countryside, everyone can enjoy dramatic football matches on the most vivid and modern screens. But one thing is certain, everyone's love for football will never change. My Dinh Stadium has become a hot "fire pan", ready to "overwhelm the spirit" of any opponent.

Wherever there is a team, there are hundreds of fans. In addition to combining football watching and sightseeing, some businesses even organize a charter flight to join fans in cheering on the team. Whether at home or abroad, the atmosphere is filled with red flags with yellow stars, the atmosphere is as jubilant as a festival. The sound of trumpets, drums and the song "As if Uncle Ho were here on the day of great victory" resounds everywhere.

...to U-19 Vietnam - the new hope of the country's football

Over the past year, the U-19 Vietnam team with a team of well-trained young players has become a hot topic for the press and fans. The team has grown significantly through tournaments: U-19 Southeast Asia, U-22 Southeast Asia, and the recent U-19 Southeast Asia tournament.

The flamboyant playing style, effective defense and beautiful goals of Mr. Guillaume Graechen's students have won the trust of the fans.

On October 9 in Myanmar, they will start the U-19 Asian tournament with the opening match against the reigning U-19 champions Korea, followed by matches against U-19 Japan and U-19 China. Although they have been drawn into the “group of death” when facing the top football teams in the continent, U-19 Vietnam still has a chance to pass the group stage with a solid squad including Van Truong, Dong Trieu, Tuan Anh, Xuan Truong, Cong Phuong... Miracles will happen if they maintain their form and fighting spirit.

As for the fans, it is predicted that there will be a “show of force” to Myanmar. Besides the group of fans who organize the trip themselves, there are many people who want to combine tourism and exploring Myanmar – a country that is still too mysterious for Vietnamese tourists. Always accompanying fans on all roads is the mark of Vietravel - a prestigious travel brand with many years of experience in organizing football tours.

Charter flights to bring fans to cheer on the Vietnamese football team at the AFF Cup and SEA Games are still a unique product, only available at Vietravel.
