4 U22 Vietnam players recommended to coach Park
Despite losing in the semi-final match of the 2019 Southeast Asian U22 tournament against U22 Indonesia on February 24, with their impressive performance, 4 players of U22 Vietnam were recommended to coach Park Hang-seo.
Accordingly, the four names proposed by coach Nguyen Quoc Tuan to coach Park include captain Tran Thanh Son, midfielder Phan Thanh Hau, defender Le Van Xuan and striker Tran Danh Trung. In addition to Phan Thanh Hau, who was once called up to the national team by coach Park, the remaining three players are all important factors in the U22 Vietnam squad participating in the U22 Southeast Asian tournament.
Duc Chinh is not in good form.
Coach Le Huynh Duc expressed his dissatisfaction with Duc Chinh's recent performance. In the 58th minute of the match between SHB Da Nang and Viettel, when the home team was leading 3-0 and had one more player, Coach Huynh Duc sent Ha Duc Chinh onto the field to replace Pham Thanh Tiep.
During the 30 minutes on the field, the striker from Phu Tho did not leave much of an impression. “Ha Duc Chinh could not do anything even though the second half was very easy, especially his ball control was not good.
He was not in good form when he was pushed inside. However, Chinh controlled the ball well and played with speed. He needs to be more alert, control the ball and handle situations better,” said coach Huynh Duc.
Hai Phong coach believes Vu Hai will replace Van Lam
In the first round of V.League 2019, Hai Phong played away at Ho Chi Minh City Club. Coach Truong Viet Hoang and his team had a good match but unfortunately the team from the port city lost in the extra minutes of the match. Coach Truong Viet Hoang said: "Football is always like that, Hai Phong team played well but luck turned its back on us".
Sharing more about the goalkeeper position of Vu Hai, who was assigned to replace Dang Van Lam in V-League 2019 in the goal of the Hai Phong team, coach Viet Hoang said: “Today, Vu Hai played quite well, with many excellent saves. He will fill the void left by Van Lam.
The V-League journey ahead is still very long, Hai Phong losing 1 match is not too bad. For Vu Hai, he needs more time to command the defense better. With what Hai Phong showed today, I am satisfied with that. Unfortunately, the score was not as expected when they lost at the last minute."
