Celebratus interruptus

HANOI: The streets were unusually quiet on Friday evening
during and after the soccer final between host Vietnam and
Thailand at the My Dinh Stadium.

While the stadium accommodates only 40,000 spectators, most
Hanoians chose to stay at home, glued to their TV screens to
watch the gold medal match. In previous games, the calm on the
streets lasted for around two hours, after which motorcades with
the roaring horns would fill the streets, celebrating each
Vietnam victory.

However, it was quiet all night after the match after the
Vietnamese men's soccer team lost to Thailand 2-1. --JP
