"Some positions of U23 Vietnam do not know how to counter-attack"

Watching the performance of Coach Park Hang Seo's students at the AFC U23 Championship, Coach Nguyen Thanh Vinh said: "Mr. Park Hang Seo has significantly improved the defensive ability of the defenders. Even that way of defending does not cost too much energy for U23 Vietnam, there are less disputes and fewer fouls than the opponent."

Regarding the U23 Iraq team, the opponent of U23 Vietnam in the U23 Asia quarter-final match taking place tonight (January 20), coach Nguyen Thanh Vinh commented: “Overall, the West Asian teams all have similar playing styles, so Iraq's playing style will be quite similar to Syria's. However, in terms of level, Iraqi football is at a higher level than Syria's. The U23 Iraq team in this year's tournament is also stronger than the U23 Syria team; the U23 Iraq team has individuals who can make a difference, while the U23 Syria team lacks such players.”

The veteran coach of Vietnamese football shared: “As a spectator, I think U23 Vietnam needs to concentrate on this match. Use the best players in terms of physical strength and expertise to have a certain success in the match. More than anyone, Coach Park Hang Seo understands his players, their form and fitness. The biggest problem for Coach Park Hang Seo's team in the future is recovering their fitness. I believe in Coach Park Hang Seo. I believe he will have a strategy against U23 Iraq, on the condition that the players must be in good physical condition.”

In addition, Mr. Vinh also did not forget to "give advice": "It is necessary to create a certain excitement for the players, of course the players should not be impatient, following the intentions of Coach Park Hang Seo. U23 Vietnam may still play according to the old tactics, but still dare to attack and will succeed if we counterattack quickly when the opponent is subjective. The attack line needs players who can counterattack quickly and well. In my opinion, there are still a few positions when holding the ball, struggling, either having to find a way to finish, or having to coordinate with teammates and run into position."

"U23 Vietnam can even consider bringing the match to a penalty shootout. But to do that, they must first recover their physical strength after the group stage matches" - former coach Nguyen Thanh Vinh concluded./.

Sooner or later, coach Park Hang Seo will trust SLNA players.
