Young player of Vietnam futsal team was 'suffocated' when playing against Hungary
Some young players of the Vietnam futsal team admitted that they were mentally exhausted and felt "overwhelmed" when having to compete at high intensity in the match against the Hungarian futsal team.
After the match, the players admitted that they felt pressured in their first time playing at home against a big opponent. “I just joined the national team so everything is still confusing. It was the first time playing in front of a large audience and against a strong opponent, so there were times when I was nervous. The opponent's playing intensity was very fast, I felt like I couldn't keep up. I think matches like this will help me gain more experience,” said pivo Dinh Cong Vien after the match.
Vietnam Olympic team ready for opening match against Mongolia Olympic team
Yesterday, September 17, the Vietnam Olympic team had their first training session to prepare for the men's football event of the 2023 ASIAD. There was not much time, but coach Hoang Anh Tuan and his team were ready for the matches, starting with a clash with Olympic Mongolia.
Because it took a day to travel from Hanoi to Hangzhou, coach Hoang Anh Tuan and his team only had 2 practice sessions to prepare for the opening match in Group B. Sharing about this, coach Hoang Anh Tuan said: “Actually, we anticipated this problem and knew what needed to be adjusted first and what needed to be adjusted later. In my opinion, the players are in good condition. Bringing the players back to a state of fitness to prepare for the match is very important. Second, the players must have good spirit. I think the Vietnamese players have these two things.”
In Group B of the 2023 ASIAD men's football, the Vietnamese Olympic team will face Mongolia, Iran and Saudi Arabia. The first match against Mongolia is very important for coach Hoang Anh Tuan and his team.
Former Man City star returns to the pitch after 763 days
More than two years after facing legal trouble over 10 counts of sexual assault, former Man City defender Benjamin Mendy has finally made his return to action. The 29-year-old made his debut for new club Lorient in a 2-2 draw with Monaco in the fifth round of Ligue 1 2023/24 on the evening of September 17.
The former Man City defender came on for Vincent Le Goff in the 70th minute with Lorient trailing 2-1 at Le Mousoir. “This is a really special moment in my life. I’ve been waiting for it, I’ve been anxious about it every second, and I’m overwhelmed with happiness,” a tearful Mendy told Canal Plus after the match.
Before Mendy entered the field, Lorient's defense played without concentration and allowed Monaco's substitute Folarin Balogun (former Arsenal youngster) to score to increase the score to 2-1. However, Mendy's appearance helped Lorient's defense play with concentration, neutralizing most of the visitors' extremely sharp attacks. Lorient even scored an equalizer in the 8th minute of injury time thanks to Romain Faivre's goal.
