Coach Park Hang-seo lost two Korean assistants at the same time

VFF leaders confirmed that the two Korean assistants will not continue to accompany the team.Coach Park Hang-seoand has set out to return home.

Specifically, VFF recently carried out procedures to terminate the contracts with two assistants, Kim Han-yoon and Kim Hyun-tae, of coach Park Hang-seo. According to the investigation, the procedures were completed on November 15.

"Both of these assistant coaches have returned home. The contract between them and VFF has ended. The decision to stop cooperating came from the personal request of the two coaches," a VFF leader confirmed to us.

Coach Park Hang-seo and assistant Kim Han-yoon.

This is quite surprising information because recently assistant Kim Han-yoon and goalkeeper coach Kim Hyun-tae have both done a good job in charge of the Vietnam U23 team.

Assistant coach Kim Han-yoon came to Vietnam in 2019 and contributed significantly to the campaign to win medals at the 30th SEA Games. During the time the national team and U23 Vietnam were training together, Mr. Kim Han-yoon was assigned to manage the training of the U23 team and affirmed his ability.

Meanwhile, although he has only recently arrived in Vietnam (late 2020), goalkeeper coach Kim Hyun-tae has shown his ability and helped the U23 Vietnam goalkeepers progress rapidly.

It is known that both coaches expressed their desire to return to Korea to work and live close to family and friends. VFF has contacted its Korean partner to promote the search for a new Korean coaching staff for U23 Vietnam.

Ronaldo speaks for the first time after Solskjaer was fired

Superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has paid tribute to manager Ole Gunnar Solskajer, who has just agreed to terminate his contract with Man United, ending his nearly three-year reign at Old Trafford.

Not only do they have a teacher-student relationship, Ronaldo and Solskjaer were teammates during the Portuguese superstar's first time at Man United. Many believe that playing together at Old Trafford was the key to Ronaldo's decision to return last summer.

Now, with Solskjaer sacked, Ronaldo has broken his silence to wish the Norwegian well for the future.

"He was our striker when I first arrived at Old Trafford and he has been my coach since I returned to Man United. But above all, Ole is an outstanding person. I wish him the best in whatever life has in store for him. Good luck, my friend! You deserve it!", Coach Ronaldo shared.

Pochettino prepares to leave PSG for MU

According to Manchester Evening News, the Argentine coach is preparing to leave PSG to join MU right now instead of waiting until the summer. Many sources confirm that Pochettino is not stable at PSG when the French team is not the coach's first choice.

MU did. After being fired by Tottenham, Pochettino set his ambition to lead MU when the "Red Devils" fired Jose Mourinho. However, MU chose Ole Solskjaer as interim coach and then signed a long-term contract with the Norwegian coach.

MEN said Tottenham even offered MU to buy Dele Alli last season because they knew the Argentine coach wanted to coach his former student. However, PSG fired Thomas Tuchel and brought Pochettino to Parc des Princes, making the plan unsuccessful.

Pochettino is having many problems at PSG despite having superstars like Lionel Messi, Neymar or Kylian Mbappe. He has not been able to fully utilize the strength of this attacking trio, and PSG has not played convincingly in recent times.

Why did Mr. Park Hang-seo call another goalkeeper?

Coach Park Hang-seo wants the highest level of safety for the AFF Cup because more than ever after the recent consecutive losses in the third qualifying round of the 2022 World Cup,Vietnam National Teammore or less cope with the pressure. Therefore, Mr. Park has called up additional goalkeeper Pham Van Cuong.

Van Cuong tries hard to practice on the national team.

Previously, Van Cuong was called up to the national team under Mr. Park but has not been a starter in any match. But this time the competition will be much fairer. In fact, the Vietnam national team currently has 5 goalkeepers including Tan Truong, Van Hoang, Nguyen Manh, Van Chuan and Van Cuong.

According to the tournament regulations, each team is allowed to register 30 players and most likely, the Vietnam team will go to Singapore with 3 goalkeepers. That means 2 goalkeepers will be eliminated. Of course, nothing can be said for sure at this time, but Van Cuong's inclusion in the national team is also a preparation for calculations in the goalkeeper position, so that the last stopper of the Vietnam team must be safe and make as few mistakes as possible.
