Today's defeat is a valuable lesson for my students in the future. I believe that U23 Vietnam has reached a new level in the continent. The players are confident to compete against any opponent."

Coach Park Hang Seo talked about his future plans: "I don't think this tournament is related to the AFF Cup because this is a tournament for young players. In November we have important matches at the AFF, hopefully I can call up many good players with good form."

For his part, striker Anh Duc shared: "This is the third time I have attended the Asiad and this tournament is really regrettable. The whole team tried their best, but it's a pity that we didn't win today's match. Everyone was determined but lost on penalties and that was a very regrettable result."
