Official list of 2022 World Cup qualifiers: Coach Park Hang-seo unexpectedly eliminated Nguyen Manh
(Baonghean.vn) - This afternoon (August 22), head coach Park Hang-seo surprised everyone with the official list of the Vietnam National Team gathering to prepare for the away match at Thailand in the first match of the second qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup in Asia.
Accordingly, 27 players with the best form at the moment have been selected by Coach Park Hang-seo for this training list. There are not many surprises when most of the players summoned are experienced faces who have been trained through many matches and tournaments in the national team and U23 national team.
Although two players Nguyen Trong Hoang and Doan Van Hau are injured, their names are still included in the list for continued monitoring and treatment to monitor and speed up the recovery process.
In addition, the return of defender Vu Van Thanh and the reunion of two players playing abroad, goalkeeper Dang Van Lam (Muangthong United-Thailand) and Nguyen Cong Phuong (Sint Truidense-Belgium) are also notable highlights. Thus, SLNA goalkeeper Nguyen Manh was removed from the list by the Korean coach.

In addition, some new faces such as defender Lam Anh Quang (Nam Dinh), Nguyen Huu Tuan (HCMC), striker Ha Minh Tuan (Quang Nam), or young players who are developing very well such as defender Do Thanh Thinh (SHB Da Nang), Nguyen Hoang Duc (Viettel) are also given the opportunity for this training session.
According to the plan, the Vietnam national team will gather in Hanoi on August 26. The group of players from Hanoi FC will gather later, on August 29, because they have to play the second leg of the 2019 AFC Cup inter-zone semi-final at Altyn Asyr FC (Turkmenistan).
On September 1, the team will leave for Thailand to prepare for the match against host Thailand in the second qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup in Asia, taking place at Thammasat Stadium on September 5, 2019.
