Vietnam U23 team receives extremely good news from the Organizing Committee of the 2018 AFC U23 Asian Championship.

According to an announcement from the organizers of the 2018 AFC U23 Asian Championship, all players who received one yellow card in the group stage will have their cards cleared before the quarter-final matches.

This is quite good news for the Vietnam U23 team because four of Coach Park Hang-seo's players received one yellow card each in the group stage: Duy Manh, Doan Van Hau, goalkeeper Tien Dung, and Xuan Truong.

Korean media praises Quang Hai's goal.

The South Korean newspaper Daum recently published an assessment of midfielder Nguyen Quang Hai's goal in the match where Vietnam U23 lost to South Korea U23 1-2 in the second match of Group D at the 2018 AFC U23 Asian Championship.

The newspaper wrote: "Quang Hai scored a beautiful goal. Goalkeeper Lee Tae-hee was unable to stop the shot."

Ho Chi Minh City FC is about to go to Nha Trang for training.

According to reports, on January 21st, Ho Chi Minh City FC will travel to Nha Trang (Khanh Hoa province) to begin a 7-day training camp. Besides training sessions, coach Toshiya Miura and his team will also play a friendly match against Sanna Khanh Hoa BVN.

This is an ideal opportunity for the Saigon team to test out a new lineup with new signings such as Ngoc Thinh, Van Thuan, Phi Son, Gonzalo…

Coach Park: "The Vietnamese players are not weak in terms of physical fitness."

Coach Park Hang-seo admitted that when he first came to Vietnam, he thought the weakness of Vietnamese players was their physical fitness. However, after interacting with the players, the South Korean coach changed his mind.
