Coach Philippe Troussier is satisfied with the Vietnam team after the victory at Thien Truong Stadium.

Sharing at the press conference after the friendly match with the Syrian team, coach Philippe Troussier said: The goal of each match is to win. In addition, I and the Vietnamese team also have other goals. We want to build a new style of play. The players and coaching staff have worked very hard over the past ten days. The players have worked to the maximum to meet the requirements.

Due to the short concentration, the team still made mistakes and made mistakes. But that is normal because it is different from before. I asked my students to hold the ball, control it better, be persistent and effective.

I am satisfied. In addition to the victory, the team's performance was also good. I put pressure on myself and expected the players to do their best. In the last two matches, the team kept a clean sheet and today they scored from a live ball situation," coach Philippe Troussier shared.

"I think it will take time for the players to understand my requirements from now until the World Cup qualifiers. The second requirement is that when they return to their clubs, they play regularly. The V-League ends at the end of August, the new season starts in October, and the World Cup qualifiers are in November.

I hope that in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, the players need at least 4 to 5 matches at the club. If they don't play regularly, it will be difficult for them to maintain their form. I will talk to the coach more to monitor the players' condition.

In the next training sessions, I will select the best squad. This June, the goal is still to give opportunities to new faces. For example, today there are 5 more U23 players. Hopefully after this session, they will be more confident," said the French strategist.

Evaluating Van Toan, coach Philippe Troussier said: "Van Toan is always proactive and disciplined in training sessions. The initial plan was to send Van Toan onto the field in the second half and play on the right wing. This is a plan that brings strong attack power. But then there were a few changes, so when he entered the field, Toan played on the left wing and then moved to the right. I think Van Toan fulfilled his role. Experience and positivity will help Van Toan become an important factor in the future."

This is the first time in the past 2 years that we have had the opportunity to compete with opponents on the FIFA rankings. Syria is led by coach Hector Cuper and is currently ranked 90th in the world.
