Vietnam Olympic receives very good news before the match against UAE Olympic for Bronze Medal

The bronze medal match of the Vietnam Olympic Games had no extra time.

Unlike all the knockout matches that took place at the 18th Asian Games, the bronze medal match between Vietnam Olympic and UAE Olympic will not have extra time. If after 90 minutes of official competition, the two teams are tied, the winner will be decided by a penalty shootout. Meanwhile, the gold medal match will still have extra time if Japan Olympic and Korea Olympic are equal in 90 minutes of official competition.

Explaining this change, the Organizing Committee said that they need time to prepare best for the final match. This detail is very important for the coaching staff of the Vietnam Olympic team.

In fact, after playing with great effort in the previous 6 matches, the physical strength of the Vietnamese Olympic players has been worn out quite a bit. Therefore, not applying extra time is not necessarily a disadvantage for our team. Besides, the good penalty-saving ability of goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung is also a support for coach Park Hang-seo to have appropriate calculations to help the Vietnamese Olympic team have the most optimal plan with the goal of defeating the UAE Olympic team.

Vietnam Olympic team gets private jet to fly straight home

On September 2, instead of flying two legs to Hanoi, Coach Park Hang Seo and his team will be taken on a private plane straight from Jakarta back home. Not only will they be picked up by a private plane, but the Vietnamese Olympic team will also be able to attend a grand celebration at My Dinh.

According to the plan, right after the bronze medal match with the UAE Olympic team on September 1, the Vietnam Olympic team will pack their luggage to board the plane to return home. It is known that this is the Vietnam Airlines' special plane flying straight to Jakarta to pick up Coach Park Hang Seo and his team. In addition to the Olympic team, some members of the Vietnamese sports delegation are also on this flight.

This is good news for coach Park Hang Seo and his team because they will not have to spend much time traveling from Jakarta to Ho Chi Minh City, then connecting to Hanoi.

With the direct flight, the Vietnam Olympic team is expected to arrive at Noi Bai airport on the afternoon of September 2. Thousands of fans will surely be waiting to welcome the victorious team home.

Coach Park promised to bring bronze medal to Vietnamese fans

The big boss revealed the reason why Xuan Truong played badly at Asiad 2018

Coach Duong Minh Ninh of HAGL recently revealed the reason why his student Luong Xuan Truong could not achieve his usual form in the Vietnam Olympic team at the 2018 ASIAD. “Before joining the Vietnam Olympic team to prepare for the 2018 ASIAD, Xuan Truong had a nasal infection.

This injury caused a deviated septum, causing Truong to have swelling and difficulty breathing, only being able to breathe on one side. This made it difficult for Xuan Truong to sleep, so he could not be in the best health condition when playing on the field. Actually, Xuan Truong had been like this for a long time, but when concentrating on the ASIAD, it relapsed.

I know Xuan Truong has been trying to practice. But because of insomnia for a long time, he is not in the best shape…, Mr. Ninh shared.
