Tran Xuan Hiep is considered the first hope for a medal for Vietnam in today's competition. At the 28th SEA Games, he won a gold medal in the sword fighting category and a bronze medal in the long boxing category.
With Xuan Hiep reluctantly withdrawing, hopes for a medal in wushu are pinned on Duong Thuy Vi. In the early afternoon, Thuy Vi will compete in the finals of the swordplay event.
In the afternoon, the focus of the Vietnamese delegation is on football. In the men's football event, the Vietnamese Olympic team will play against Japan to decide the top spot in Group D. Meanwhile, the women's team will start their campaign with a match against Thailand.

Coach Park Hang Seo believes in giving Cong Phuong a starting position in the match against Japan this afternoon, but if he has to take a penalty to compete for the top spot, the Nghe An striker will definitely not be on his list.
