Head coach Pham Anh Tuan of Hai Phong Club said: "Players must be aware of how to practice to maintain their physical condition and form as during competition time. I also have a headache because many players in their hometowns do not have the conditions to practice and do not have a gym."

"We don't care about other teams. We give the players exercises so that during Tet, they have to report to the coaching staff by video every day. If the players gain a little weight, it's okay, but if they gain a lot, there will be a penalty later," Coach Van Sy - Nam Dinh Club shared with Zing.
