Ticket fever at My Dinh Stadium

(Baonghean.vn) - If they top Group B, they will play the first leg of the semi-final against the second-placed team in Group A away on December 3 and the second leg 4 days later. But from now on, there are signs of a ticket fever at My Dinh Stadium..

After Vietnam beat Malaysia 1-0, along with Myanmar defeating Cambodia 3-1, the Vietnamese team has quickly secured a ticket to the semi-finals. The final match of Group B will take place at 6:30 p.m. (Vietnam time) on November 26. While Myanmar will face Malaysia at Thuwunna Stadium in Yangon, Vietnam will meet Cambodia at Wunna Theikdi Stadium in Nay Pyi Taw city. Most likely, Vietnamese players who have not played in the first two matches such as Phi Son, Minh Tuan, and Ngoc Duc will have the opportunity to appear.

Most likely Cong Vinh will be rested to recover his health in the next match.

According to the plan, on November 27, the whole team will fly back to Vietnam to prepare for the semi-final match, playing home and away. If they win Group B, they will play the first leg of the semi-final against the second team in Group A away on December 3 and the second leg 4 days later.

There is a 99% chance that we will top Group B, but the coaching staff of the Vietnamese team is still very cautious. The proof is that Coach Huu Thang and his assistants stayed in the stands and watched the match between Myanmar and Cambodia, taking meticulous notes. Right after arriving at the Lake Garden Hotel (Nay Pyi Taw), instead of resting after traveling 370 km by plane, the whole team was still required to do additional physical training in the premises of this 5-star hotel.

It is expected that over 30,000 spectators will come to My Dinh Stadium to cheer.

A VFF official (who asked not to be named) said that it would be another week before ticket sales for the semi-final match would begin, but he had already received phone calls to book tickets very early. Experts say that if the Vietnamese team continues to play convincingly as they are now, a “ticket fever called My Dinh” could completely happen. That is truly a good sign for the country’s football!
