Fox Sport highly appreciates Vietnam's ability to continue
According to Fox Sport, the Vietnamese team will finish the group stage in second place, just behind Iran. This shows that this newspaper highly appreciates coach Park Hang-seo and his team.
Yesterday, Fox Sport gave its opinion on Group D of the 2019 Asian Cup. In it, the newspaper said that with its superior strength, Iran will not have difficulty winning the top spot in this group. The remaining ticket is the competition between Vietnam and Iraq.
If we consider many factors (quality, experience, etc.), Iraq is rated higher than the Vietnamese team. They won the Asian Cup 2007 and reached the semi-finals of the tournament 4 years ago.
However, Fox Sport believes that a surprise will happen when Vietnam will surpass Iraq to take the second place in this group. They believe that the AFF Cup 2018 championship will give great motivation to coach Park Hang Seo and his team in this difficult tournament.
Among them, like many other newspapers, Fox Sport rated Nguyen Quang Hai as the most notable player on the Vietnamese side. Recently, this midfielder was in the top 15 in the vote for the best player in Asia.
Talking about the Yemen team, Fox Sport believes that this team will hardly create a surprise because the force is too weak. They also assess that Iraq at this time is not as strong as in the 2015 Asian Cup.
At 8:30 pm tomorrow (January 8), the Vietnamese team will face Iraq. This is considered a decisive match for Coach Park Hang Seo and his team to advance.
