Trong Hoang is an extremely important factor for Mr. Park Hang-seo in the AFF Cup and Asian Cup campaigns. His abundant physical strength allows Hoang to "crawl" and play tirelessly. He attacks and defends rhythmically. Not only good at disputes, Trong Hoang has now become much more sophisticated in organizing attacks. In the Asian Cup group stage, Trong Hoang had 111 passes in 3 matches against Iraq, Iran and Yemen and 80 of them were on target. The most impressive move was probably the breakthrough and indirect shot that helped Cong Phuong score to raise the score to 2-1 for the Vietnamese team.

4. Bui Tien Dung

Que Ngoc Hai is the captain of the Vietnam national team under Park Hang-seo. The central defender from Nghe An had an impressive AFF Cup and now the 2019 Asian Cup. Que Ngoc Hai has changed a lot in the way he plays. From a player who played aggressively and sometimes too much, the young father from Nghe An now plays more intellectually. Therefore, his ability to read situations and pass the ball to teammates has improved significantly.

After finishing the group stage, Que Ngoc Hai has 135 passes with an admirable success rate of 79.3% - the highest on this list.

2. Do Hung Dung
