In the first singles match, 25‑year‑old Dinh Anh Hoang faced Malaysia’s Javen Choong. Hoang won a close 3‑2 battle (11‑3, 5‑11, 11‑7, 9‑11, 11‑9), giving Vietnam its first point of the final.

Later, Hoang played again in the fourth match. After losing the first game 6‑11, he quickly changed his play, won the next three games 12‑10, 11‑9 and 11‑8, and secured a 3‑1 win that clinched the title. The match ended with a penalty point when Malaysia’s Wong was shown a red card for abusive language.

Coach Vu Manh Cuong said that training camps and a strong showing at this year’s National Games helped Hoang improve technically and stay calm at key moments. Hoang’s comebacks and the penalty‑point drama helped Vietnam win its first men’s team title in ten years.
