(Baonghean.vn) - Coach Park Hang-seo set the goal of a beautiful victory against Myanmar to not only win the top spot in the group but also create a boost for the semi-finals of the AFF Cup 2022.

Myanmar was eliminated after 2 losses and 1 draw in Group B, AFF Cup 2022. Coming to Vietnam this time, coach Antoine Hey's team only had 19 healthy players, not to mention only 1 practice session to get used to the weather and field.

In that situation, Myanmar no longer has much motivation to compete. Coach Antoine Hey said he wants to use many young players to prepare for the future.

So, tonight's match at My Dinh Stadium seems to be just a story of the host Vietnam. Of course, coach Park Hang-seo and his team are very confident in a victory to take the top spot in the group.

In the draw against Singapore, coach Park Hang-seo made 8 new changes to the Vietnamese team. Before the match against Myanmar, although Mr. Park affirmed that there was no gap between the "main actors" and "supporting actors", in reality, the Korean strategist knew what to do to make the Vietnamese team play better.

But coach Park Hang-seo does not need to use his strongest squad because the semi-finals will be 3 days after the last round of the group stage. With such a tight schedule, the Korean strategist must also calculate so that the pillars can rest and avoid penalty cards, which is very necessary for the long-distance race.

Thus, Coach Park Hang-seo is likely to use a sufficient lineup to find victory. That will be goalkeeper Dang Van Lam, central defenders Duy Manh, Que Ngoc Hai, Thanh Binh, and the two wings are Van Thanh and Hong Duy. The central midfielders of the Vietnamese team are Hung Dung and Tuan Anh, and on the attack line are Van Quyet, Van Toan and Tuan Hai.

After the final round of matches in Group A ended on the evening of January 2, Coach Park Hang-seo also made calculations for the semi-finals. The Vietnamese team will meet Indonesia if they win the top spot in Group B.

A victory to take the top spot in the group, preserve the strength and keep the fire burning for the semi-finals are the goals of the Vietnamese team in the match against Myanmar.

The Vietnam vs Myanmar match will take place at 7:30 p.m. on January 3 at My Dinh Stadium.

Expected lineup of Vietnam team: Dang Van Lam, Duy Manh, Que Ngoc Hai, Thanh Binh, Van Thanh, Hong Duy, Hung Dung, Tuan Anh, Van Quyet, Van Toan, Tuan Hai.
