U23 Vietnam received sad news before the battle with Qatar
Losing troops at this time is a big loss for the U23 Vietnam defense as well as coach Park Hang Seo.
Left-back Doan Van Hau is injured and cannot play with U23 Vietnam in the remaining two matches of the U23 Asian Cup, even if coach Park Hang Seo and his team reach the final.
Doan Van Hau suffered a torn hamstring. This is a serious injury, forcing the PVF defender to say goodbye to the tournament, even though he is very eager to give his all with U23 Vietnam to continue making new historical milestones.

| Van Hau officially left the tournament due to a serious injury. |
Previously, Van Hau and Tien Dung were injured after the match that tied U23 Syria in the group stage. Before the quarter-final match with Iraq, Tien Dung was relieved and the center-back was injected with painkillers to play, while Van Hau received bad news from the doctors. The injury forced this left-back to recuperate for about 3 weeks, which means he will have to be a spectator in the next 2 matches of U23 Vietnam.
Losing Van Hau is a big loss for the U23 Vietnam defense as well as coach Park Hang Seo, even though Xuan Manh played a good substitute role in the quarter-final match against U23 Iraq.
Van Hau was the player who made a great dribble on the left wing, before passing the ball to help Quang Hai score a great goal against U23 Korea, scoring the first goal for U23 Vietnam in the 2018 AFC U23 Championship.
Before that, Van Hau also always played excellently in the national team, U22 Vietnam at SEA Games 29 and U20 Vietnam.
