Stunning Indonesia continue their dream

Constant pressure from the Vietnamese saw them equalize in the 83rd minute through Vu Van Danh and then Minh Danh sent Vietnam wild when he scored a brilliant solo goal in the 94th minute. The replacement goalkeeper Ngoc Hai added more drama when in the 96th minute he gave away a penalty for a trip on Beny Wahyudi. The penalty was converted by Manahati Lestusen and Indonesia march on.

War Elephants make it look easy
