Regarding his exclusion from the Vietnamese national team for the 2023 Asian Cup, Cong Phuong had a very positive reaction. He said: “I don’t know what people around me think. Personally, I think it shows his passion for football. So I don’t have a bad impression of him.”

When asked how the Vietnam national team has changed since Mr. Troussier replaced Mr. Park Hang-seo as coach, Cong Phuong shared frankly. According to him, under the leadership of Coach Park Hang-seo, the focus is placed on the defense and there are many defensive exercises carried out in practice.

However, after taking over from his predecessor, Coach Troussier applied a 3-4-3 formation to control the ball more. “We can play on par with opponents of similar level, but if we put many players forward, there will be problems behind the defense,” said Cong Phuong.
