The list of Vietnam team will be announced via livestream.
For the second consecutive time and the third time in history, the Vietnamese team is present at the Asian Cup. This is the biggest tournament for Asian national teams. At the same time, it is also the start of the 2024 campaign full of hope and ambition for coach Philippe Troussier and the Vietnamese team.
In preparation for the tournament taking place in Qatar in mid-January, the list of the Vietnamese team will be announced online (livestream) on VFF's social media platforms (YouTube, TikTok, Facebook) to announce each participating player. The livestream will take place at 2:30 p.m. on Monday (December 25).

Thailand team loses main striker Dangda at Asian Cup 2023
In the 30th minute of the match against Khonkaen United on December 16, Dangda suffered pain and could not continue playing. Doctors said the 35-year-old player was suspected of having torn ligaments. He needed an MRI to determine the exact extent of the injury, but with a history of pain and poor physical condition, Dangda almost certainly would not be able to recover in time for the 2023 Asian Cup in Qatar.
Even with the lightest injury, Dangda will need 3-6 weeks to recover, and the finals are only 3 weeks away. The information above gives coach Ishii a headache in choosing the lineup and he will almost certainly have to find a new solution for the attack.
It will probably be difficult for the Japanese coach to solve the problem of replacing Dangda. His ability to run, choose a position in the penalty area and his finishing ability have helped Dangda become the number 1 striker of the Thai team for over 10 years, despite his frequent injuries.

In 2023, Dangda scored 5 goals for the national team. No member of the War Elephants scored more goals last year than Dangda, despite his very few appearances. The above statistics show that without Dangda, Thailand will have a harder time managing in the 2023 Asian Cup.
Man United lost their 8th match in the Premier League 2023 - 2024
In round 18 of the 2023 - 2024 Premier League, visiting West Ham in a serious shortage of players, coach Erik ten Hag had to start young player Kambwala alongside Jonny Evans in the role of center back. This patchwork defense was fortunate not to have to work too much in the first half because West Ham had a lot of possession but did not dare to push the attacking formation.
This situation continued until the second half and when West Ham suddenly increased the speed, Man United immediately became confused and fell to only the home team's very normal counterattacks.

In the 72nd minute, Lucas Paqueta had a good exchange with Jarod Bowen and calmly made a sharp pass for Bowen to run down and finish. Goalkeeper Andre Onana touched the ball to save the goal, but the home player's second shot left him completely helpless.
The goal made Man United even more eager to push up their formation to attack and level the score. However, while Man United's strikers were still struggling to find a chance to score, their backline ruined everything. In the 78th minute, Kobbie Mainoo lost the ball and Lucas Paqueta sent a very fast through pass to Mohamed Kudus who ran down and tore the net of Onana.
With a 0-2 defeat, Man United dropped to 8th place while West Ham jumped three places to 6th place. Coach Erik ten Hag's position is increasingly shaky and the Dutch coach is expected to lose his job before the end of 2023.
Barca at risk of being kicked out of the Champions League
German newspaper Die Welt recently published an investigation, and concluded that Barca is really facing the threat of being expelled from the 2024/25 Champions League for violating the Financial Fair Play (FFP) Law.
In September, Barca reported revenues of €304 million for the 2022/23 season, but according to UEFA financial regulations, only the revenue related to football business activities is decisive.
Meanwhile, the huge revenue figures reported by Barca were largely due to a record number of new sponsorship deals and record revenues from Barca Stores, as well as the "economic levers" they have used in recent years. The Catalan giants have sacrificed many of their assets to help increase revenue.

One of those levers was the sale of a 49.9% stake in Barca Licensing & Merchandising (BLM), which over the past year has “recorded a 54% increase in sales in physical stores compared to the previous year,” according to Barca sources.
As a result, Barca's financial balance sheet does not match the actual revenue related to football business activities, and this violates UEFA's Financial Fair Play Regulations. German newspaper Die Welt emphasized that UEFA members even commented that Barca's balance sheet is "a disaster".
The penalty for Barca could be a two or three-year ban from the Champions League. "The bigger the deficit, the heavier the penalty," a source at the European body told Die Welt.
Previously, Barca was fined 500,000 euros for misrepresenting profits from intangible asset transfers in the 2022 fiscal year. In this season's Champions League, the La Liga representative has passed the group stage, and will meet Napoli in the round of 16.
Players who can stop Nadal from winning the Brisbane International
Having missed most of the 2023 season, Rafael Nadal has announced his return in early 2024. The Brisbane International will take place from December 31, 2023 to January 7, 2024, marking the return of the "Bull". Brisbane is part of the ATP 250 system, but there are many quality opponents for the Spanish superstar.
The 22-time Grand Slam champion is training at his tennis academy in Mallorca, Spain, and is entering the tournament as a wildcard, so the 37-year-old could face a seed in the first round.

According to the registration list, Brisbane has 1 top 10 player, 1 top 15 player, 2 top 20 players and 1 top 25 player. Holger Rune is the most notable figure, the Danish star is currently ranked 8th in the world, he is selected as the number 1 seed at the upcoming event.
Grigor Dimitrov (Bulgaria), ranked 14th in the world, is Nadal's next formidable opponent. However, Nadal has an overwhelming 14-1 head-to-head record (14 wins, 1 loss) against the star nicknamed "Little Federer". If they have to meet early, Dimitrov will probably be more nervous.
Also in Brisbane are Ben Shelton, ranked 17th in the world. Sebastian Korda (ranked 24th), a star with a great serve. And the tournament also features Andy Murray, the former world number one, currently ranked 42nd, who has played Nadal 24 times.
