| Coach Hoang Anh Tuan and U19 Vietnam players prepare to participate in a friendly tournament in Korea |
The tournament has the participation of U19 Vietnam, U19 Mexico, U19 Morocco and U19 Korea. 4 teams compete in a round-robin format to calculate ranking points. This is a tournament that coach Hoang Anh Tuan assessed as very useful for U19 Vietnam in the journey towards the U19 Asian Finals taking place at the end of this year in Indonesia and further to win tickets to attend the U20 World Cup 2019. By competing with teams of higher level, the players will learn a lot about skills as well as football thinking. This year, U19 Vietnam does not have many outstanding players like the previous U19 generation, but in return, coach Hoang Anh Tuan has a fairly even and cohesive squad.
