Hanoi (VNA) - Doan Van Hau of Vietnam has been selected in the FIFA U20World Cup’s Asian best 11 by Fox Sports Asia.

Vietnam is one of the five Asian squads at the ongoing tournament in theRepublic of Korea.

All the teams were ousted after the second stage. Based on their performance,Fox Sports made its own team.

Hau is said to be a dynamic, attack-minded left defender. The 18-year-old fromHanoi FC caught the eye of the Vietnamese side that impressed many, despitetheir early exit.

“A lively threat raiding up the left of the pitch, he was also solid in hisdefensive work and showed some strong link up play with the midfielders furtherforward and appears to be one of the crop of young talents that could move onto higher honours and perhaps a professional career abroad,” thefoxsportsasia.com wrote.

The 1.82m is one of the seven U20 players called to the national team for theAsian Cup qualification.

Other defenders of the Asian best 11 are Hassan Tambakti and Anas Zabbani(Saudi Arabia) and Jeong Tae-wook (the Republic of Korea).

The strikers were Cho Yong-wook (the Republic of Korea) and Abdulrahman Al Yami(Saudi Arabia).

Midfielders were Ritsu Doan (Japan), Ayman Al Khulaif (Saudi Arabia), RezaShekari (Iran) and Lee Seung-woo (the Republic of Korea).
