Coming into the match with a 2-2 draw in the first leg of the final, Nguyen Anh Duc’s strike in the 6th minute helped the Golden Dragons to a famous victory. However, it was after the goal that Vietnam did the hard work of keeping the Harimau Malaya at bay.

Coach Park Hang-seo set up the usual five at the back defence which he had used to perfection in the tournament so far. Nguyen Trong Hoang, Do Duy Manh, Tran Dinh Trong, Que Ngoc Hai and Doan Van Hau manned the defence in a 5-4-1 with Nguyen Huy Hung and Do Hung Dung holding the midfield.

Nguyen Quang Hai and Phan Van Duc took up the two wide positions with Anh Duc the sole striker.
