Coach Kim Sang Sik had an accident while celebrating the championship with U23 Vietnam

(Dan Tri) - Coach Kim Sang Sik fell after his students threw him into the air to celebrate winning the U23 Southeast Asian Championship.

Vietnam U23 won the Southeast Asian U23 Championship after a thrilling 1-0 victory over Indonesia U23. With this championship, Vietnam U23 has made history by winning the Southeast Asian youth tournament for three consecutive times. This is a record that will be very difficult to break.

After the final whistle blew, the entire U23 Vietnam team burst into tears after the victory. The players gathered together and threw coach Kim Sang Sik into the air. This was a celebration similar to when the Vietnamese team won the AFF Cup 2024 championship earlier this year.

However, this time, the students of the U23 Vietnam team caused the Korean coach to have an accident. They lost their grip while supporting coach Kim Sang Sik. That caused the strategist born in 1976 to fall to the ground.

Coach Kim Sang Sik held his back with a grimace. However, this did not affect the next celebration of his students. The Korean strategist still raised the championship trophy with the entire U23 Vietnam team.

Coach Kim Sang Sik was very active on the sidelines throughout the final match to boost his players' morale. Not only that, he also had some interesting "psychological warfare" moves such as preventing player Robi Darwis from throwing the ball, scattering water bottles on the sidelines to make it difficult for the U23 Indonesian players. In addition, the coach born in 1976 also bowed to the referee after receiving a yellow card.

Notably, coach Kim Sang Sik is undefeated in the Southeast Asian tournament. Earlier this year, he helped the Vietnamese team win the AFF Cup with 7 wins and 1 draw. Now, he continues to bring glory to the U23 Vietnam team in the U23 Southeast Asian tournament with a total of 4 wins.

After winning the Southeast Asian U23 Championship, Vietnam U23 will prepare for two important tournaments ahead: the Asian U23 qualifying round in September and the 33rd SEA Games at the end of the year.
