After the victory against Jordan, Mr. Nguyen Trong Huong - father of player Trong Hoang, is even more confident that another victory will come to us.

Mr. Huong affirmed that Vietnam will win if it plays with all its might.

“The players’ spirit is high, this is the motivation to help us overcome the challenge. The Japanese team may be stronger, but that doesn’t mean we can’t overcome it,” said Mr. Huong.

According to Mr. Huong, the Vietnamese team has always had to face much stronger teams since the beginning of the tournament. From those matches, the players have trained in experience to gradually mature. Therefore, we entered this match not because of luck but because of our strength.

Regarding Trong Hoang's injury, which could affect his performance, the father from Nghe An said: "Yesterday, Hoang called to say that his injury was minor and that he was well taken care of by the doctors so he is now fine. Tonight, Hoang will play his best like in previous matches and even stronger."

However, Mr. Huong also predicted that the two teams would draw in 90 minutes and we would not be able to score until the second extra time. Vietnam would win with a score of 1 - 0.

Mr. Hung believes in the victory of the Vietnamese team.

Also predicting that Vietnam will win, Mr. Que Ngoc Hung - Ngoc Hai's father believes we will resolve the match in 90 minutes, without needing extra time.

“Through the match against Jordan, we can see that the gap in strength between the teams is not too far anymore. Although our players were considered weaker, they played very evenly, and even played better in the second half. Therefore, if we play as well against Japan as we did against Jordan, we will win,” said Mr. Hung.

Mr. Hung commented that Japan is better than us in terms of class, but there is one thing our players have an advantage in, which is spirit. Excitement is high, the players play their best, then miracles will happen.

"I predict we will win 1-0. In the first half, the players must defend tightly and keep a clean sheet. Then the second half will be our chance to win," said Mr. Hung.
