Last month, U19 Vietnam suffered a 3-4 defeat to U19 Myanmar in the final of the U22 Southeast Asian Championship and tonight's rematch is an opportunity for coach Guillaume Graechen and his team to get revenge. Coach Gerd Zeise, a former V-League player, admitted that U19 Vietnam has a great chance to win.

WIN WITH THE STRONGEST TEAM
Great news for U19 Vietnam when all injured players Van Truong, Dong Trieu, Van Son have recovered. Coach Graechen also prepared very well for the reunion with U19 Myanmar by giving midfielder Quang Hai a rest, Tuan Anh was also given a rest in the previous match to save energy for this match.
Coach Graechen made it clear to his players that the defeat in the final match of the U22 Southeast Asian Championship in Brunei was the personal fault of the defense because the offense still played very well, scoring 3 goals. To minimize the risk of recurrence, the French coach had his players practice and learn from experience. Fitness is also a special priority for U19 Vietnam and in addition to the nutritional regimen guaranteed by NutiFood's leading experts, recovery measures such as ice baths and relaxing swimming pools are also applied.
Without making any promises but extremely confident, Coach Graechen said: “U19 Myanmar has been training together for a long time, the players have good technique, the coach has a modern football philosophy. It will be a tense match and much more unpredictable than the final match of the recent U22 Southeast Asian tournament.But we also have reason to be confident, the important thing is that we have prepared the best for the match.”.
“MYANMAR WANTS TO MEET JAPAN MORE THAN VIETNAM”
It would be a big mistake to think that Myanmar U19 has only emerged in the past few years. In fact, Myanmar used to be a very strong football team in Asia and especially, in the U19 age group, this team won the Asian championship in 1961, 1963, 1964, 1966, 1968, 1969 and 1970. Over the years, with the bottomless pocket of billionaire Zaw Zaw, the Myanmar U19 team was assembled with 120 players and then screened to select the 30 best faces to go to Germany for long-term training. Currently, the Myanmar U19 team is playing in the First Division in this country to accumulate more competition experience.
After 2 matches in this year's tournament, U19 Myanmar only conceded 1 goal - the least in the tournament and won 2 absolute victories to become the team with the highest goal difference in the tournament. More specifically, the 5 goals they scored were very diverse, with smooth coordination, free kicks, headers, breakthroughs... U19 Myanmar is having comprehensive strength, resonated from the positions on the field with an extremely modern and versatile playing style.
Myanmar U19 coach Gerd Zeise is no stranger to Vietnamese football. In 2006, the German coach was the technical director for Da Nang. After a terrible defeat against Gamba Osaka 0-15 in the AFC Champions League, Mr. Gerd Zeise was fired. The German coach highly appreciated Vietnam U19: "We beat Vietnam U19 in the U22 Southeast Asian tournament, but there is no guarantee that we can do it again.Not to mention in Southeast Asia, U19 Vietnam has quality at the Asian level.and have a whole nation behind them cheering for them. Honestly, I would rather meet U19 Japan than have to face U19 Vietnam in the semi-finals."
It will be a ruthless match, between opponents who are no strangers to each other and the debt from a month ago seems like it happened yesterday. Victory or defeat may be decided by the brilliance of individuals.
PREDICTION: 3-2
COACH GERD ZEISE (U19 MYANMAR): “IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DEFEAT U19 VIETNAM”
“Vietnam U19 is one of the best teams in this age group in Asia. In Brunei, we won 4-3 but that does not mean that the same result will automatically repeat at My Dinh Stadium. Vietnam U19 has the support of 40,000 spectators in the stadium and it will be very difficult for us to defeat them. In football it is difficult to predict anything, but I affirm that today's match will be very attractive because both teams want to serve the audience a real football party!" COACH GUILLAUME GRAECHEN (U19 VIETNAM): "WE ARE CONFIDENTLY ENTERING THE MATCH"
“In the past year, U19 Myanmar has made clear progress, especially in attack. They are not an easy team to overcome. However, after 2 matches against U19 Australia and U19 Japan, the mentality of U19 Vietnam players is very good. At this time, U19 Vietnam players are very eager and confident to reclaim the debt in Brunei recently. Of course, to be successful, concentration must be put first,” said coach Graechen. Dong Trieu, Van Son is ready The minor injuries in the recent match against U19 Japan were not significant, so the coaching staff of U19 Vietnam decided to "keep" the duo Dong Trieu and Van Son (photo). Head of the delegation Duong Vu Lam said that both have fully recovered and are ready to play tonight. The return of center back Dong Trieu and right back Van Son will help U19 Vietnam have the best force in the "debt collection" match against U19 Myanmar. |
Japan in the final?
At 4:30 p.m. this afternoon, U19 Japan will meet U19 Thailand at My Dinh Stadium in the first semi-final match. With the impressive performance shown in the group stage, experts believe that U19 Japan will likely win to reach the final match.
Prediction: 2-1
