Thailand coach Mano Polking bemoaned his side’s defending at set-pieces after Vietnam salvaged a late 2-2 draw in the first leg of the Asean Championship final in Hanoi on Friday. Polking is aiming to lead the Thais to back-to-back titles after winning the Southeast Asian competition last year but saw his hopes of a first-leg lead ended by Vu Van Thanh’s 88th-minute equalizer at My Dinh Stadium.
