We’ve shortlisted six of the most dynamic performances, and now it’s your turn to vote for the ultimate winner.

 

Noah Leddel (Philippines) v Malaysia, 15 July

Noah Leddel stood tall in defence for the Philippines when they kicked off the Mandiri Cup™ 2025 with a 2-0 win over Malaysia. The Philippines only had 30 percent of possession and were outshot 16-6 in the game, but many of Malaysia’s opportunities came from distance as they struggled to get past the 1.86-metre Leddel, who was a model of discipline as he stuck to his defensive position and snuffed out any danger posed by the Malaysian attack.

 

Vabio Canavaro (Timor-Leste) v Myanmar, 16 July

Central midfielder Vabio Canavaro played a key role for Timor-Leste in their entertaining 4-4 draw with Myanmar, energetically snapped into challenges to win possession for his side and distributing the ball well to his team-mates as they regularly caught out their opponents on the counter-attack. The 18-year-old also set up a goal for captain Zenivio Gostavo Conceição with a strong challenge on the edge of the box before scoring himself with a thunderous half-volley from 25 yards.

 

Yotsakon Burapha (Thailand) v Timor-Leste, 19 July

Yotsakon Burapha was a live-wire for Thailand in their 4-0 win over Timor-Leste, leading the attacking line and pressuring the Timor-Leste defence into errors and giveaways. He spent the majority of the game in the attacking half, scoring the opening goal with a strong header off a corner and playing an excellent through-ball from the centre-circle to Chawanwit Sealao who ran clear to score Thailand’s fourth goal.

 

Nguyễn Phi Hoàng (Vietnam) v Philippines, 25 July

Nguyễn Phi Hoàng gave a dominant performance on the left side of the pitch during Vietnam’s semi-final against the Philippines as his surging runs down the flank and pin-point crosses into the box proved instrumental in his side’s 2-1 victory. Nguyễn Đình Bắc’s equaliser late in the first half and the winner by Nguyễn Xuân Bắc after the interval both resulted from his accurate crosses.

 

Jens Raven (Indonesia) v Thailand, 25 July

Jens Raven was closely watched by opponents after his six-goal haul against Brunei but Thailand still had trouble containing the big Indonesian striker during the semi-finals. The 19-year-old was active all over the pitch for the hosts and aerially dominant in the Thailand box as he hit the post with a first-half header before nodding in his side’s late equaliser to force the match into extra-time.

 

Nguyễn Công Phương (Vietnam) v Indonesia, 29 July

In addition to scoring Vietnam’s winning goal in the Mandiri Cup™ 2025 final, Nguyễn Công Phương was also the most dynamic player in the match as he dominated the right side of the pitch, driving his side forward in attack and frustrating the Indonesian attack down his flank. Although he rarely ventured into the final third, he was in the right place in the Indonesia box following a 36th minute corner to pounce on the ball and fire home the only goal of the game.
