Supachok released an '8s clip' to Xuan Son, Vietnamese fans, showing their attitude because they were pressured?

Supachok 's clip is being shared at a dizzying speed. Many social media sites believe that the Thai midfielder thanked Vietnamese fans after receiving the award for 'Best goal of the second leg final'.

Recently, Supachok Sarachat's controversial goal against Vietnam won the award for "Best goal of the second leg of the 2024 ASEAN Cup final". This award is said to have been "forced" by Vietnamese fans to be given to the Thai midfielder. After a series of criticisms, the "Golden Dragon" fans called on each other to vote for Supachok, leaving this player to be embarrassed again because of his goal that lacked fair play.

It is worth mentioning that on January 9, a clip of Supachok saying thank you after receiving the above award appeared on social media. Some social media sites also said that he was thanking Vietnamese fans for voting for him, and did not mention any players on the Vietnamese team after the fiery 'clarification' at Rajamangala Stadium.

In the clip, the midfielder born in 1998 appeared quite haggard, sending his thanks to everyone. However, there was no mention of Vietnam as rumored. Perhaps Supachok was wise enough not to mention the opposing team's fans at this time, because doing so would be like "adding fuel to the fire".

Many Vietnamese fans believe that the argument should stop here and call on each other not to push things too far. Criticizing others does not make us "fair players". Instead of focusing on finding ways to "intimidate" and attack others, enjoying the joy of victory is much more meaningful. Captain Duy Manh himself said: "It's all over, the most important thing is that we won and brought home the precious cup".

The lack of fair play by Thailand or Supachok does not make Vietnam's championship lose its value, on the contrary, it makes it more attractive and convincing. The Thai midfielder himself has also spoken up to explain his goal. What fans should remember now is the effort and will of the Vietnam team, not an unsportsmanlike goal.

However, according to research, this is a clip from 2023 on the community fanpage of the Thai club Buriam United. The content of the clip is just the male striker's greeting to the audience, in Thai, only 8 seconds long. With more than 1 million views, the clip has become a place for viewers across Southeast Asia to "unload" comments.

Bsty Chung account wrote: "Supachok is really promising. His talent is undeniable. However, if Ms. Pang wants to bring Thai football to the world, she should open a class to promote beautiful football culture. Sports are not just about winning or losing. It also shows the spirit of fair play and fair loss. Every match is a class to teach players how to stay calm, whether winning or losing."

Agreeing with this opinion, an account (possibly from Vietnam) expressed: "You are very right. Southeast Asian football should learn how to behave on the field, playing for the fans of the countries. Only then can regional football develop. It is not good to disregard everything just because of a goal. There must be ethics in football!"

Another opinion said: "Although Thailand lost in the final, after this defeat, they lost more than just a trophy. The players lost basic honor, the flag lost respect from opponents and the fans lost pride in their favorite team. Our Vietnamese team won in terms of points, statistics and spirit. Vietnam deserved the championship."

It's time to "put" Supachok aside! Supachok has also received "excess" amount of criticism on social networks from netizens, not only in Vietnam but also internationally. Currently, the Thai striker certainly has a lot of thoughts, more than a lesson, after that unsportsmanlike goal.

So the Supachok story can be put aside. Because the opponents of the Vietnamese football team are not only this 26-year-old striker or the Thai team. We still have many steps to conquer in the future, under the leadership of coach Kim Sang Sik. And the ASEAN Cup 2024 is just a stepping stone to create momentum.
