Now, every match of the Vietnamese National Team or even the U23 team always attracts a large number of fans’ attention and follow-up. It’s easy to understand, as under coach Park Hang Seo, our golden boys have achieved many miraculous feats.
Of course, in recent matches of the Vietnamese National Team, netizens have begun to notice a character, or more precisely, a fan who always holds a loudspeaker and is famous for the chant “Flying to the Sky, I’m Flying Out” whenever the opponent is awarded a free kick. The match against U23 Jordan in the group stage of the 2020 U23 Asian Championship yesterday was no exception. Whenever the home team’s goal was in a dangerous situation, the chant rang out loud enough that even viewers watching on TV could hear it.
Initially, many people found the unusual chant and the unique voice of this female fan quite amusing. However, gradually, as it was spammed continuously, many began to find it inappropriate, annoying, and even distracting for the players on the field. After the match against U23 Jordan, where the team only earned one point and had very slim chances of advancing, the online community flooded the Facebook of this female fan to “attack” her with many inappropriate comments.
Reading through the comments, it is clear that many people expressed their outrage towards this somewhat overly enthusiastic female fan.
However, it can be somewhat understood that when the home team wins, nobody pays attention, but when U23 Vietnam faces unfavorable results, the chant “Flying to the Sky, I’m Flying Out” immediately comes under fire from the online community, who find it bothersome. It should also be noted that, alongside some attacks from overly passionate individuals, there are also voices defending this female fan, arguing that if there are issues, constructive feedback should be provided rather than resorting to harsh words on her personal page.
