Recently, Team Flash officially got eliminated from the major tournament after losing to Buriram United in the decisive match for advancing to the next round of AWC 2021, marking the first time this team has stopped at the group stage of an international tournament. As a result, this outcome has led to significant criticism directed at the members of Team Flash.
On their personal Facebook pages, the players of this team have shared heartfelt messages to their fans, primarily apologizing for the expectations placed upon them. They also expressed hope that the remaining two representatives from Vietnam, Saigon Phantom and VGaming, will make a mark at AWC 2021.
Saigon Phantom
With a 2-0 victory against ArchAngel, Saigon Phantom secured a spot in the quarter-finals of AWC 2021. The standout performer in this 2-0 win against the Indonesian representative was BronzeV. “The guy from Saigon” has truly become a nightmare for opponents with his incredible dominance. Additionally, the team’s understanding of each other is a significant strength.
VGaming
While Team Flash faced tremendous disappointment by being eliminated from the group stage, another representative from Vietnam, VGaming, caused an upset by convincingly defeating ONE Team from Taiwan to secure the top spot in Group B after the group stage.
With this achievement, fans hope that these will be the two names that propel Arena of Valor Vietnam further in this year’s tournament. The quarter-finals of AWC 2021 will officially take place on June 30.
