THE GUESTS DO NOT PLAY FOR MONEY…

All three guest teams of the 2014 U19 Four Nations tournament have submitted their applications to the Organizing Committee. In the registration form, Japan U19 has listed three future stars: Minamino Takumi, Matsumoto Masaya and captain Miura Genta. These are all players currently playing in J-League 1, who shone at the U17 World Cup in Mexico 2011 and in continental tournaments. Tottenham U19 has notable players such as Ball, Percil, Miller... AS Roma has Francesco, Arturo...

There is a very remarkable detail, that is when Barca and Ajax could not participate in the Four Nations tournament for different reasons, Tottenham and AS Roma agreed to participate. Even better, when accepting the invitation, these two teams did not care about the bonus but only sought information about the level of their opponents.

Until it was known that Asia's top team, U19 Japan, was participating and especially the storyU19 VietnamThey only accepted after they had defeated their Australian opponents (whose team had many players playing in Europe). Therefore, it was not until a month later, after carefully studying their opponents, that Tottenham and AS Roma signed a commitment to bring their strongest squad to Vietnam!

HOSPITAL HOST
Upon receiving the news that their opponents had brought their brightest stars to Vietnam, Coach Guillaume's players were very excited and wanted to get on the field right away to compete with their peers. Defender Le Van Son shared: "In fact, we have played many matches with players from Europe and Africa. They have very good physique and fitness. However, we are not afraid to compete with them in technique. We know U19 Japan quite well thanks to the matches at Sanix Cup 2013. This is a well-rounded team! And playing with players from top teams in Italy and England is also an opportunity for U19 Vietnam to learn, gain experience and grow more mature...".

Sharing the same view, midfielder Duc Huy, who just returned from a trial trip from Japan, said: “These are all very strong opponents, many of their players promise to be bright stars in the future of European football. Therefore, competing with them is also an opportunity to know our own abilities. U19 Vietnam will prepare the best, my teammates and I are very comfortable and eager to go on the field to compete with them!”

Vietnamese fans are in a frenzy about this promisingly exciting youth tournament. They are looking forward to seeing their favorite U19 talents perform, and they are excited about the quality of the guests. The proof is that the new ticket sale date was announced almost immediately, and many days before that, we received many calls from audiences everywhere asking about tournament information, ticket prices, and even… asking to buy tickets!
