In a quick interview with the press before the training session on the afternoon of June 22, midfielder Van Truong said that the most favorable thing for Van Truong and his teammate Van Khang when returning to wear the U19 Vietnam team shirt is that coach Dinh The Nam's tactics have many similarities with coach Gong Oh Kyun's tactics at the U23 Vietnam team, so it also helps Van Truong and Van Khang adapt quickly. "Coach Nam and coach Gong's tactics are quite similar. However, each coach has their own way of communicating. We will try to grasp it," Van Truong said.
