In fact, when the Vietnam National Football Team won the 2018 AFF Cup, people took to the streets and covered everything in red to celebrate their victory. This is the kind of fiery passion that Viber wants to capture this World Cup season. With a dedicated Channel for the country\u2019s most beloved sport, fans can directly show their support for the Golden Star Warriors no matter where they are in the world.<\/p>\n<p>This year, Vietnam football fans have more reasons to celebrate this World Cup season as Rakuten Viber launches the Vi\u1ec7t Nam ti\u1ebfn l\u00ean Channel, the best virtual platform to engage with fellow enthusiasts and experience new football-themed features. With the support of VTV Live, fans will also get a chance to directly speak with the country\u2019s beloved athletes such as rising Vietnamese football stars Duy Manh and Hoang Duc, who are set to join the Channel themselves! From receiving daily updates, match scores and highlights, and cheering each goal with custom AR-powered Lenses, Viber will also give away one-of-a-kind prizes to lucky members of the Channel.<\/p>\n<p>Viber has always shown solidarity with the fast-growing football fanbase worldwide by bringing the same level of excitement in stadiums to their users\u2019 phones. From custom sticker packs, engaging Viber Sports lens, to real-time match score updates and other exciting relevant content via Vi\u1ec7t Nam ti\u1ebfn l\u00ean Channel, the global messaging app has been becoming a sports fanatic\u2019s best friend.<\/p>\n<p>By conveying this same spirit to the Vietnam football community, members of the channel can look forward to football highlights of the national team\u2019s journey as they embark on the qualifiers of the World Cup. Viber will also be launching custom <strong>Vi\u1ec7t Nam Chi\u1ebfn Th\u1eafng<\/strong> and so fans can show their support for the local team. As a bonus, they also get to score an inside look at some of Vietnam\u2019s beloved footballers\u2019 lives off the field through special interviews to be released exclusively on the Channel.<\/p>\n<p>This initiative is another step towards Viber\u2019s fan-first campaign, particularly in football. They previously partnered with FC Barcelona to bring fans the official FC Barcelona Community in\u00a0 2018 and even relaunched their lenses to support the festive football season. Now, 1.7 million Barca fans worldwide get exclusive content like special Lenses, fancy sticker packs, a behind-the-scenes look into the daily lives of the players, and the club\u2019s official news and updates.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>About Rakuten Viber<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Rakuten Viber connects people regardless of who or where they are in the world.
