These days, when the Vietnam U23 football team made a resounding miracle, reaching the final match of the U23 Asian Cup, generations of Vietnamese people were always in a happy and proud mood. This victory, this goal that had to go through decades, is a milestone in the history of our country's football.

It is not just football but also the confidence, national pride, and aspirations of the Vietnamese people to reach out in many other fields. The problem is from the "sweet fruit" of U23, what will Vietnam have to do to make that aspiration manifest in many other fields; especially helping today's young generation always have the aspiration to reach the continental level in building their lives and developing the country...

(…) We are happy that there are many young people with Vietnamese aspirations and they are reaching out to affirm their value in many fields. Not only enriching themselves and their families but also contributing a lot to the community and society. There are many people who have crossed the continent to reach the heights of the world in fields such as mathematics and music.

Therefore, being proud of the U23 football team gives us a belief: Vietnamese aspiration is real in each individual and in society, especially in the young generation. The problem is that managers, families, schools, and society must arouse and awaken. Next is to nurture and nurture. So that aspiration is not only expressed in football, in sports but also in life, especially in starting a business and getting rich.

Each young person must fully feel their rights and obligations to themselves, their families and society in nurturing their dreams and building a shore of happiness. With the desire to move forward, to cultivate themselves and to be built, young Vietnamese people will have the opportunity to shine not only in the country but also to reach the continent and the world. We all have the same belief.
