On the afternoon of August 3, a special friendly match between the Vietnam 7-a-side football team (VPL Dream Team) and the team of professional football stars, national players and former national players - Viet Nam All Stars took place at the Hoang Mai Culture - Information and Sports Center (Hanoi).

Attending the match was the presence of striker Nguyen Tien Linh - the reigning Vietnam Golden Ball 2024 - the number one domestic striker of the Vietnam national team. Accompanying Tien Linh in the Viet Nam All Stars team were a number of other national players such as Nguyen Hai Long, Truong Tien Anh, Do Duy Manh or Bui Tien Dung.

Participating in the 7-a-side match, the Vietnamese players joined hands to contribute to the "Couple of Loving Leaves" fund - a program with the mission of "Giving the opportunity to go to school - Giving the opportunity to change life" - a volunteer activity to connect kind hearts with children in difficult circumstances, supporting them on their journey of learning and pursuing their dreams.

The 70-minute match at Hoang Mai Stadium gave the audience a feast of football with 6 goals divided equally between the two teams.

VPL Dream Team - familiar with the 7-a-side tournament - entered the game proactively and quickly took a 2-0 lead thanks to goals from Claudecir and Dau Duc Tu.

However, Viet Nam All Stars showed the class of the national players and former national players when Hoang Dinh Tung scored a double, and Nguyen Huy Hung contributed a goal, helping the team turn the game around and take the lead.

In this match, Tien Linh only played for 20 minutes and did not leave any mark on the artificial turf, which is not his forte. He has been the center of attention in recent days, when he suddenly left the club that helped make his name, Becamex Binh Duong (now Becamex TP.HCM).

Linh's new destination has not been confirmed.
