Rating the Vietnam team in the match against Jordan

((Baonghean.vn) - Since Dinh Thanh Trung left the field in the 66th minute, the Vietnam national team has hardly created any truly dangerous opportunities. However, the defense contributed greatly to the 0-0 draw against Jordan.

Tfanatic Dang Van Lam (8 points)

In his first start as a substitute for Nguyen Manh, the Hai Phong goalkeeper impressed with 4 clear saves. Although Jordan's attack did not play impressively and Van Lam did not have much pressure, this goalkeeper created peace of mind and was a support for his teammates.

Au Hoan may be small in stature, but he was the bright spot of the Vietnamese defense in this match. He had many situations where he was able to rush forward, support the center-backs, tackle accurately, and support the attack quite well. During the whole match, Au Hoan was only dribbled past 1-2 times.

Tien Dung (6 points) - Ngoc Hai (7 points)

In the first minute, the central defenders did not support the defense well. In particular, Que Ngoc Hai had some dangerous situations, but could not turn them into counter-attacks. On the contrary, it gave Jordan a chance. Jordan's dangerous situation in the 89th minute was due to Ngoc Hai's mistake when standing in the wrong position in the offside trap. In general, Tien Dung and Ngoc Hai showed few mistakes and played relatively well. That was the reason why Jordan could not score.

Left-back Van Thanh (7)

In the first half, Van Thanh had 2 dangerous finishing situations, ensuring a good defensive role and effectively supporting the attack, attacking and defending smoothly. With good basic techniques, Van Thanh is also a bright spot in the defense of the Vietnam National Team.

Midfielder Nguyen Huy Hung (6 points)

Perhaps Huy Hung has not found his best form yet in the Vietnam national team shirt. In many situations, Huy Hung could not read the opponent's intentions and did not play well in the role of recovering the ball. That is the reason why Xuan Truong up front did not have much of the ball to build up for the front line. In this match, Jordan mainly exploited the central area, so Huy Hung also had a hard day playing.

Midfielder Dinh Thanh Trung (8 points)

The captain of the Vietnam team in this match was the best player on the attack. He had a dangerous free kick, sending the ball to the post. Many times the ball accelerated, passed people and created opportunities. If he had been luckier, Thanh Trung could have helped the Vietnam team score a goal.

Midfield pair Xuan Truong, Tuan Anh (6 points)

Perhaps because Huy Hung could not show his role, Xuan Truong and Tuan Anh were not really themselves. In this match, Xuan Truong did not have many chances to pick up the ball or pass the ball to put his teammates in a favorable position. Tuan Anh also just returned from injury so he did not have the familiar wall passes and central coordination. Tuan Anh and Xuan Truong made the midfield of the Vietnamese team somewhat inferior to the opponent.

Striker Nguyen Van Quyet (5 points)

Van Quyet still needs more time to help fans fill the void of missing Le Cong Vinh. The striker of the Vietnam national team cannot create opportunities for himself nor coordinate well with his partner Cong Phuong. That is the reason why the number of dangerous opportunities that the Vietnam national team creates can be counted on the fingers of one hand.

Striker Nguyen Cong Phuong (4 points)

Although coach Nguyen Huu Thang trusted him to stay on the field for the entire 90 minutes, Cong Phuong was a huge disappointment. On the field, he had friends Xuan Truong, Tuan Anh, and Van Thanh who were very compatible with each other, but the number of times Cong Phuong was mentioned by the commentator was very small. His playing style was still deadlocked, easily blocked by the opponent and he lost the ball. Not being able to launch any shots reflected Cong Phuong's performance.

Striker Vu Minh Tuan entered the field in the 66th minute to replace Thanh Trung, which was quite a long time but Minh Tuan was almost out of sight. This was in the context of the Vietnamese team starting to retreat to protect the goal. Do Duy Manh replaced Xuan Truong in the 77th minute and Quang Hai replaced Cong Phuong in the 84th minute but could not show much. However, overall, this was a temporarily acceptable match for the Vietnamese team's defense. Among them, Van Lam and Au Hoan were the brightest spots.
