I feel your pain, Maxwell. It's called being a fan of the Mexican National Team 😢
Real
At least Mexico defeated Germany
@vincentkennedymcmahon.2.9b4 Yeah a Germany team who's getting beaten by everyone
At least Mexico has been to World Cups
Or poland
i love how after iraq scores maxwell censored all of his english swears but then everyone saying vietnamese behind him went off absolutely without any censorship whatsoever lol
Can someone translate what they were saying?
@@flaya11”F*ck referee, it is only a few seconds, why didn’t you blow it”
@@flaya11Im a vietnamese, and I can say that they are not swearing. Mostly, they are just saying “oh no” and “vietnam conceded” and stuff like that
@@flaya11 18:15 you should hear a loud voice saying "bố m* còn có mấy giây nữa... m* cái thằng trọng tài đ*o thổi còi" which roughly means "f*king hell there's only a few seconds left... f*king referee didn't blow the f*king whistle" xD
@@flaya11 They cursed the referee for not blowing the final whistle sooner.
I came expecting a rant on how poorly we play.
I didn't expect an emotional trip to memory lane from Max's prespective as he visited his mom's country. These vlogs video can get to me man i hope you enjoyed your time there ❤🇻🇳
The boys didn’t do half-bad. The youngsters’ play in the second half was pretty decent if you ask me. Things start getting out of control when Que Ngoc Hai get injured.
Troussier though need to sort out his priorities. I can fully understand his intentions to prepare for the future, but c’mon, some of that squad doesn’t even start in V-League. At that age our core has already got themselves loads of game experience in the national league. We are in a World Cup qualification and an continental tournament, not necessarily the best time to play inexperienced kids. I still hope they grow fast enough, we are gonna need them soon.
your comment is quintessential
They didn't play bad, the other team was way better
@@rumblebird9888 🤣
There's no shame in not speaking Vietnamese, all you can do is do your absolute best, speak with a smile and with confidence. Good luck!
As an Indian National Football team fan, I feel your pain bro.
And for the other side of the trip, I feel happy for you that you got to go to the place where your mom was born and grew up.
Bro we got battered in every stage of the game against qatar don't know what you mean.
@@greenrico10 wasn't talking about the Qatar game but ok.
@@greenrico10well qatar is a really strong team so a lose was predictable. But chin up bro, we still have 4 games left on this round and it's against Kuwait and afghanistan
I’m an England fan and we will forever bottle our chance to win a national trophy
Fellow Viet here, I usually hate going to Vietnam with family since I want to experience it on my own. But it was nice to hear what you had to say about what it means to you, especially part with the connection with your mom. Keep up the great content!
I'm from Japan, and I went to Vietnam for studying when I was a college student.
And I can confirm, Vietnamese people's passion toward football is magnificent.
During my stay 2019 SEA Games was held, and Vietnam won the title. I watched the final match against Indonesia. And soon after Vietnam won the match, Vietnamese people paraded through the street, cerebrating their victory.
I cannot forget the atmosphere at that time. I felt like I was in South American country!
It’s not as bad as going to watch a Pakistan match of any sport. Count yourself lucky Maxwell.
PAKISTAN MENTIONED🗣🔥🗣🔥
(still haven't recovered from 6-1 tajikistan loss)
@@ahadkhanzia YO A FELLOW PAKISTAN ULTRA RAAAAHH 🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰 (still haven’t recovered from Saudi thrashing)
XD
we've become numb to the pain at this point
i watched the whole match, and that moment was pure pain, i really felt like i've wasted 2 hours of my life just for that. But i do hope Vietnam will get better, as the Asian Cup is near.
As a fan of Kyrgyz National Team, I can feel the pain. In the first match away against Malaysia, we were leading 3-1. But when our goalkeeper left with small injury, defense just crumbled out and we bottled it to 4-3 to Malaysia (last goal in 90+3). Even though, I still believing that we will go out of the group. Anyways, good and a bit emotional video. Vlogs will enrich your channel, Max. From Kyrgyzstan ❤
i feel you, since i support the Philippines. i was really happy tho when we beated you guys 0-1 😅
Shut up Nurbas
@@wind_2478 Watching the Azkals is literal pain.

I started following your channel from Asian Cup draw video and I just want to tell you keep going, your content is very neat, joyful and it is clear how you putting effort on it.
And if you come to Iraq in our home game against Vietnam I will be very happy to you here.
Take care and good luck for Vietnam in Asian Cup (except their match against Iraq 😂).
I feel your pain Maxwell, and that is called being a fan of the El Salvador National Football team, we literally haven’t won a match for 2.5 years.
I feel your pain, my country doesn't even qualify to its own continental competition
What's your country
It's Bhutan ey?
As a pakistani i feel your pain
as a fan of DOUBLE DEPRESSION (USMNT and Somalia) i could just feel the emotion emanating from you, happy new year Maq
USA wins trophies. Even if its in CONCACAF we can still have joy. We can have joy in this generation. Our best one. We have some good players in good teams in good leagues in europe. We have 1 mls player(who shouldnt even be there). Only problem is the ass manager.
I feel you. As venezuelan I expect to watch my national team debuting next world cup finally! 🤑⚽🇻🇪
Venezuela is solid rn. Congrats on your draw vs brazil
The love for our Vietnam team is incredible!
Thank you!

extremely wholesome seeing you do your own content and rediscovering your roots :)
When we won by last-minute goal, I really wanted to see your reaction
But it's okay
I'm sure that Veitnam will win their other next games except for the next game in June against us
I'll be sure to witness to see that much from the Stadium
The real fight for our teams will start with the next stage
Veitnam is improving, and we Iraqis know that, and we are trying to improve our game
We've brought a good coach and started to call for players who were born and play in european leagues
And we're trying to improve our league, and with time, you'll see that Iraq will get better and better with time
We will beat indonesia for sure. You guys will probably in top 1 and we will be in top 2
It’s heartwarming seeing you visit the country where your mom is from and feeling more alive! I had the same experience, Last year I went to Mexico for the first time, and meet my grandmother for the first time and slept in the house where my mom grew up, it was surreal, made me very happy, and a little sad too, getting to know the place my mom left behind long ago, but was an overall great experience! Loved visiting the country where my roots are from🇲🇽! I’m happy you did too!
I just came to mexico for the first time and hearing what you said about Vietnam in the beginning is exactly the same way I feel. This country seemed like a folktale to me and I couldn’t help but say “Wow this is real” whenever I saw the beaches and the old pueblo my mom was from. nonetheless, good video :)
Nothing is more depressing than being a Latvian fan,getting ur hopes up and then seeing them crashed 2 minutes in
At least y’all got Basketball and hockey.
As an iraqi fan i can confirm that we're the goats
هههه
I feel your pain Maxwell here, as a fan of the Chilean National Team it has been really tough. Hell it’s been tough to be a fútbol fan. We have an aging squad with not enough players to replace them, and we are in an uncertain future with a new coach. All I can say my family and I who watch us fail to win again and us sit so close to qualification but so far out of coach is that we try to hope for the next game. I wasn’t to into fútbol so I never saw our heights and have only seen as fail to make the World Cup. I hope we can improve with our new coach. I wish your national team the best of luck in qualification.
As a PFF(Philippines) fan, the country's performance so bad, I had used them for my psychology classes for 2 weeks in a row.
but the honest truth is, we were doom from the beginning, lack of chemistry, lack of federation support towards training, and it doesn't help wheeeeeen the die hards(the ultras) doesn't want to cheer with the players when they asked(Happened after the Indonesia game).
Honestly, As a Football fan, all Hope is lost rn, sure the PFL expanded, but most teams are amateurs...so I wouldn't be shocked if Kaya FC(the FCB of the PFL) win the title with no losses soooo-
It pains, and things really need to change if my country needs to compete on the bigger stages from the AFF cup to the WCQ.
Long ass essay 😂😭 but hope u see this, you're cool af, goodluck to Vietnam!
Kailan kaya ulit darating golden era natin from the 1910s😂
Some people need to tell the good folks in your national association that some grassroots development won’t hurt. I know they lack funding (like, the obvious), but not that poor.
As an Azkals fan, I feel your pain too.
Both our qualifier matches were winnable, if only we had attackers like Rasmussen. We fielded mostly veteran players especially against Vietnam (I was actually at the stadium during the match).
But still, our problem post-Younghusband still exists: the lack of a natural striker in the team.
Edit: As an ASEAN neighbor, I wish to visit Vietnam someday, too. The vlog was a vibe all throughout.
real (we're finished)
Just want to say I absolutely loved your vlog, even down to your reaction to your national team's loss haha but seriously I loved your quick story on wanting to reconnect with your Vietnamese roots. For me personally whenever I go to Jordan from Canada, I get to experience that blessing of being around the family & my roots as a whole. Knowing that I have a place to come back to is a great feeling to have. And yes, getting to learn your language in your home country does leaps and bounds to understanding your roots. I for sure felt that as a relatively late Arabic speaker and having a time where I couldn't even speak to my grandma.
Love your content as always, also side note thanks for listening to me in making an AniList account haha hope you like it!
Obviously Vietnam vlogs, or even vlogs more broadly, aren't something we can expect frequently, but I'll be looking forward to it if and once they come around. Don't wanna say I was truly surprised by how touching it was cuz your video on Vegalta Sendai has brought me to tears a couple times, hearing about how far countries like Canada or Wales have come has been inspiring, finally feeling a smidge of national pride when I see a man wearing a US soccer kit for once is a nice change of pace, and obviously vids like these have gotten me to be excited about a place I have no connection to. But still I wasn't ready for just how moving you relaying your experience was. Can't say I'm a huge football mega nerd but this channel and the effort that goes into it has brought back some of the excitement I felt when I was little, thanks for bringing that joy.
Oh and sorry to hear you've been fated to be a Vietnam football fan you have my sympathy. But also congrats y'all seem sick as hell.
dude. TH-cam recommends your video to me. I'm half way across the globe, watching a Viet dude in English and that dude happens to be from Haiphong just like me lol
It's giving Diane in that Bojack Horseman episode where she goes to Vietnam. Love this for you though chief
No Maxwell don't give up, as an Irishman I can say that if we've been able to remain deluded about our national team's prospects for this long, then you can too!
I’m an England fan how’d ya think I feel England suck 😅
Same @Hellxar1. I miss Olé-olé-olé. Now it's Olé-oh-no-OH-NO.
Visiting your home away from home, and now actively pursuing to be closer to your roots, that... is amazing.
Brings a tear to my eye. Well done my man, well done. An admirable effort.
And I feel gutted for you witnessing that goal. But one day, I know you will go to a Vietnam game and see them win.
Came for the football commentary stayed because hearing Maqwell talk about his mother's stories of Vietnam was heart-warming
Sorry about the loss man.
On a side note, having visited Vietnam solo once before, scammers did make my trip rather tedious at times. I didn't have any issues with Grab, though I did have to deal with one guy in Ho Chi Minh City that followed me around for 2 hours on his bike asking if I wanted to go on a $5 tour of the city. Managed to get away from him. Like your driver, not a bad guy by any means, but he was persistent, I'll give him that. That experience aside, I truly enjoyed Vietnam. It's a beautiful country with delicious food and I hope to go back someday.
I'm a el Salvador fan so your not alone
Jibnajib 😂😂😂
You think you suffer? Remember there are poor Brazilians out there seeing Richarlison as their number nine, Neymar partying all the time and Emerson Royal existing
Remember that us Germans have seen the same garbage for the past 5 years 😑
I feel your pain, Maxwell. It's been ONE FULL YEAR since my national team became world champions and almost four since they won a continental tournament. Oh how I long for the good old days :((((((
Damn bro, you have it worse than the rest of us
such pain

Better luck next time. I hope you come to Iraq for the return match 🇮🇶❤️
Dude you should be very proud of this vid. Result aside, this vid felt very personal and I'm sure your next time in Vietnam will be even more rewarding. Thx for the content and cant wait for the future for you 🎉
as a vietnam team follower for a long time, shit attack and conceding when the match is almost over is something that I expect at this point so I wasn't even mad. Honestly at that moment I thought "we probably gonna concede a goal" and we did.
love from iraq and hope vietnam the best in asian cup
That's nice you went back and saw the city where your mother grew up. Always nice to see a football match. Nice video. Keep up the good work.
feel ya man, we didn't even make the group stages OF THE QUALIFIERS
Are you feom Maldives
Hard to develop football when your country is full of atolls, the higher priority should be avoid sinking. Gotta need every grassroots coaches in Maldives to be highly-trained just to be a decent side.
Since you mentioned the Women's World Cup, you didn't realize that this tournament was full of excitements. Even though Vietnam and Philippines crashed out in a disappointing fashion, the latter only made the whole Southeast Asian Football very proud. In the second group game against tournament co-hosts New Zealand, they achieved one of the historic win thanks to a solitary goal from Sarina Bolden. New Zealand had just surprised everyone before with a shock victory over Norway in the tournament's opener, which was the first win for New Zealand in the World Cup overall (for both mens and womens). Next, we saw tournament favourites like Canada, Brazil, and Germany bowing out in the group stage. The said USA also played poorly after only beating Vietnam 3-0. They failed to top the group after dropping 4 points against the Netherlands and even another debutants Portugal. In the end, the 4-time champions lost to Sweden on penalties. Both Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe didn't even scored a single goal throughout the tournament. Meanwhile, the likes of Colombia, Jamaica, South Africa, and Morocco qualified for the Round of 16, with the former even reaching the quarterfinals. Lastly, the Matildas Australia also made the host country proud, despite missing their best player, Sam Kerr, through injury. They reached the semifinal, albeit not winning at all (fourth place), but still made the future of the football in the country bright. The tournament's Top 3 were the European teams, which was another big milestones in the Women's World Cup (Spain, England, Sweden).
I'm happy for you mate, being able to experience Vietnam, your mother's home country for the first time must be a great feeling. While our team wasnt be able to keep at least 1 point, I'm sure this trip will be an unforgettable memoir til the end of your life. Next time you're in the country, I would love to meet you in person and treat you some nice meals in my region.
Welcome to VN Max. You must have enjoyed your trip very much. Next time if you have chance to come back to Vietnam, I recommend you to attend a V-league match, maybe a Hanoi FC match at Hang Day stadium or a Hai Phong FC, your hometown city at Lach Tray stadium. It would be a very good experience I promise ❤
I watched Bosnia play agianst Portugal in Zenica. Biggest mistake of my life as a Bosnian fan
WOW! Haiphong native here (I actually live just 15 minutes from where the cafe shop is) and it’s so amazing to see how much love you gave to Haiphong❤❤❤
I feel your pain Maxwell it’s called being a fan of the Salvadorian national team 😢
Great video as usual, happy u have a great trip in Vietnam! Looking forward to the Asian Cup
im pretty sure someone has said this before, but you're an amazing narrator and storyteller
As much as I celebrated our last minute goal, I was heartbroken for the Vietnamese team
Their defense held strong. They are still the favorites to qualify 2nd though
Fantastic video, I really enjoyed it. My dad is a Vietnam war veteran. And my perspective of the country was based on my childhood. The turmoil of the fall of Saigon that happened a year before my birth. The attitudes towards the veterans and the refugees. In Orlando we have a huge Vietnamese community. And they still fly the flag of south Vietnam in their neighborhood, little Saigon. The pride on your heritage can be felt throughout the video. And the football was great. All the best from Orlando!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Maqwell! You’re one of the best TH-camrs out there and as someone who has relatives and a nephew over in Vietnam - I follow the Vietnam football news from you and them (but mainly you). I really want to head over that way in the next few years with my girlfriend and hopefully that’ll be the case but for now it’s work work work here in Britain. Also it’s nice knowing about your roots and the emotional connection with Vietnam through your mum was very touching. Anyways - thanks for always delivering on YT and have the best 2024 (I understand the 2023 underdelivering sentiment as I had high expectations this year too but hey - things happen man - 2024 will be better)!
This is a good video, not because this experience perfectly captured the trials and tribulations of being a VNT fan but also your experience. I haven’t been back to Vietnam since I emigrated to the US 10 years ago, but for sure I will be back. This video made me tear up fr, it was so sweet seeing your moms childhood home for the first time, and makes me miss Vietnam so much
this video was so good man, i didn't skip a minute watching this one (except I put you on 2x because I'm on a deadline). I just feel a sense of warmth watching your journey. I can see your pronunciation on Nguyễn Quang Hải name pretty accurate. you'll learn Vietnamese in no time
i also feel your pain maxwell and its being a honduras national team supporter

Well , chin up ol'chup . With the World Cup expansion and qualifier position updates you'll never miss a world cup again .
The most fun I’ve had watching one of your vids, excellent work maqwell keep it going
I’m an Iraqi Kurd, i was watching that match and i swear down when mohanad ali scored that I was WAITING for this video, didn’t get disappointed 😂😂😂
But on the other hand, so glad to see you visiting your mom’s hometown, it was truly special to see that, thank you for all the amazing content you give us 🤍
What a great recommendation by TH-cam. This was very enjoyable to watch and wouldn't have thought I would be saying that about a vlog of the Vietnamese national team
Thanks for sharing your trip to your mother’s home town! These are the things in life that make it beautiful :)
I’m honestly sorry for you Maq homie 😂😂😂

Idk if there’s anything any better within 4-5 days after this at Khlong Toei, Bangkok….🤔
Btw
ASEAN Football community is blessed to have you represent us man ❤
My german heart cant handle more DFB content… i am already dead
Don't worry Maxwell, AFC Cup is in next. The true pain is coming
What a heartwarming video. There are certain moments in this video that portrayed Vietnam in a way that I've never seen before eventhough I've lived in this place for my entire life 😊 Always looking forward to more of these type of content on your channel. Btw, speaking of Haiphong, perhaps next time you visit this city, wanna consider going to a Haiphong FC game in the league? I know the league's quality of football is not great but they have probably the craziest fans out of all the teams here and the atmosphere is insane, especially going against Hanoi FC, a lot of tension and bitter rivalry between the 2 teams. You are always welcomed to your home, see you next time
Chào bạn Maqwell!: I absolute loved that you came back to Vietnam to find your roots and felt so connected. I first found you through your Vietnam essay video and was so shocked to see a Việt Kiều talking so passionately about the national team. I hope one day you come back to your motherland and achieve all your dreams in life. Lots of love from Hà Nội!
I feel your pain, Maxwell. It’s called being a fan of the Norway national team 😢
If Norway was in Asia they literally would eat everything

I saw norway games. They play with 11 individuals tbh. Like jamaica
Did not expect such an emotional video about the Vietnam trip, glad you enjoyed your first time here. I would love to meet you btw, watching your videos on Vietnam was a very rare experience see a foreign youtuber talk about our nation football. Thanks for the content ❤
It's great that you can get to know and fall in love with your root this much. As a Vietnamese who has never stepped a foot outside this country, every now and then I say I hate Vietnam and Hanoi as a joke, but then it gets me thinking. Your videos kinda make me appreciate my country a bit more and are reassuring in some senses. Learning to speak Vietnamese would be wonderful but you made great videos representing us already, proud to have you as a fellow Vietnamese Maxwell.
I miss Park Hang Seo
Without him, we going down
Ayyyyy so happy to see you back Max
Nothing better than learning about your roots Maxwell, felt the same when I moved and went to my first Euro qualifier in Finland. National Team patriotism is the the most wholesome
My country is one of the worst teams in the world, I know that feel bro😭
Love from Malaysia! ❤ even Malaysia and Vietnam always fighting when we face each other in match😂
A friend of mine went to Vietnam a few years back with his girlfriend (now wife) he said its a brilliant place to visit, they both absolutely loved it over there, anyway Merry Christmas and happy new year Max
16:31 Gotta love the picture of Uncle Ho
19:20 the music on your cab ride back 😂😂
As a fan of El Salvador, I felt this
If u’re gonna visit saigon/ho chi minh some time, i wouldn’t mind showing u around too
Loving the insight to Vietnamese culture and the national team! Keep it up Max and happy to be watching this journey of yours!
I feel your pain bro. Travelling all the way, wishing to get away with a draw from a stronger team is priceless. Much painful when its a lost.
As a Filipino fan watched live in Panaad stadium for AFF Cup 2019 in the island of Negros, who travelled first time by plane, first time leaving my main island, first time to visit my parent's home province, and first time to experience a different culture. The next day, its a matchday vs Thailand, where everything is unexpected to have a free pass to the stadium (some of other fans have obtained car pass lol). We had chat with the locals and also Thai away fans with a fan supporter with them. So much passionate they are, and also we pinoy fans we chant and cheer the azkals.
first half was a scoreless draw, Filipinos have an edge vs bewildered Thai squad. In the 2nd half, Thailand scored first, the match progresses we lit up the crowd to chant "Pilipinas" once more. I'm praying that just one goal, would enough send shockwaves in asean. And finally they scored to tie the match 1-1 by a sheer luck, the ball hits the post, crawling in the goal line and spinning it inside, finally crossed the line. the Thai keeper couldn't believe it. The match ended in a draw. Possibly it could have been a win for the Philippines if they came out stronger in the match.
For me, I'm happy to go home with a precious point after all of this travel in the island.
As a Vietnamese who went to Hanoi and Hai Phong this summer, this vid is so surreal. Hope u had fun!
Really enjoyable video watching what was so clearly an emotional trip for you. Unfortunately football has a habit of ruining the best of times (spoken as a fan of Barrow AFC in the English lower leagues)!
Keep it up mate- your channel shines a light on world football in a way not many others do and you always come across as a really genuine thoughtful guy.
They should’ve called up Huynh Nhu from the women’s NT
Despite all the pain this is the most Ive seen you excited and smiling in a video
As a salvadorian, I feel your pain
i feel you (el salvador fan)
Honestly, for me. Traveling to Peru never really hits me that much bc of my own family situations/dynamics. It's wonderful to see how much you were affected by going to the country where your parents were born.
The only time I ever felt that "this is it" moment was when I visited the gravesite of my all my 4 grandparents who I never saw irl. That was a moment when silence truly filled my body and I felt nothing other than appreciation.
Hopefully vietnam gets better.. Hopefully
Now all i want is a maxwell and mom vietnam vlog
This was phenomenal
Bro, I'm in my first year studying abroad and will probably celebrate Tet in a foreign land this year. Thank you for bringing Vietnam closer to me through these vlogs
Really pleased that you got to see your motherland/mother's land, I know that meant a lot to her that you went.
