A perspective of the bravery of coach Park and his students
(Baonghean.vn) - The comeback match at Rizal Memorial Stadium has affirmed the mettle of coach Park Hang-seo and his players. This is the first time that coach Park's players have conceded a goal first, only with a tenacious fight did we get 3 points in extra time.
In the last training session before the match with U22 Indonesia, people saw coach Park Hang-seo "pull" Thanh Chung to the corner and give him careful instructions. At that time, many people thought that Bui Tien Dung would return to the bench, playing a lot in the central midfielder position had made the SHB.Da Nang player lose his sense of position.
Champion qualities
Thanh Chung's return to the field, becoming a stopper in front of the goal, did not surprise anyone, nor was the yellow card at the beginning of the match surprising, both in timing and position. Normally, Trong Hoang would do that task, but this time, Mr. Park allowed Thanh Chung to advance and commit a foul right at the starting point of the opponent's counterattack.
The next surprise was the equalizer from this central defender. It seemed that Mr. Park understood that his colleague Indra Sjafri had come up with a plan to neutralize the players who had created 12 goals in the first 2 matches. When U22 Vietnam took a corner kick, Ha Duc Chinh and Tien Linh would be the ones that the Indonesian players would pay attention to and mark closely.

Many people were surprised when Mr. Park had 10 minutes in the match against U22 Laos to play with 2 strikers. It was not until this match that people saw that the Korean coach was thinking long term. When playing 3-4-3, even switching Trong Hoang to left striker was not working, he decided to play 2 strikers, switching to 4-4-2 to be determined to win.
The player who scored the second goal was Hoang Duc, who was also not on the scorer list in the two matches against Brunei and Laos. Admittedly, Hoang Duc was a bit lucky in his shot, which the author later admitted that he did not believe was a goal. But if he had not put pressure on the entire second half, there would certainly not have been those memorable goals.
Only after a somewhat difficult victory did experts admit that U22 Vietnam, in addition to their professional skills, had demonstrated the character and qualities of a champion.
Is it still wrong after fixing it?
After the match, goalkeeper Bui Tien Dung shared: "My mistakes were corrected by my teammates." A very real confession, because if U22 Vietnam fails, this goalkeeper from Thanh Hoa will certainly have to bear the brunt of public opinion.

After the match, in the press conference, Mr. Park did not blame his students but also said: "The coach is responsible for the player's mistakes." But with the two students Van Toan and Tien Dung, many fans are worried, not all mistakes can be corrected when there is not much time.
Group B is going in a good direction, we have to wait until the last match to know which team will advance. Hopefully, after the emotional victory against U22 Indonesia, we will continue to extend the winning streak.
