With a great answer, Coach Park Hang-seo made reporters applaud again

Coach Park Hang-seo began the press conference with a respectful sharing to the reporters present: "Before starting, I would like to ask for your understanding. Currently, there are some Korean reporters coming here from afar, asking me some questions. Those questions also serve the friendship between the two countries. They can ask in Korean, I would like to ask Khoa's assistant to translate for me. If my answers take too much time, I would like to ask for more answers."

Regarding the Thai team's initiative to change the training ground, Coach Park shared: "Not revealing information is something every team wants, there's nothing special. It's impossible to know exactly the form of each player, but we have analyzed a lot, not just looking for information in the past few days," he continued.

Answering the question "Do you think Cong Phuong will shine and score against Thailand?", Coach Park briefly replied: "Yes". This answer made the reporters present at the press conference applaud the Korean strategist.

Not stopping there, when a Thai reporter asked, Chanathip is currently shining in Japan's J.League, does Coach Park think Quang Hai can also play football in Japan? Coach Park responded quite strongly.

He replied: “If Chanathip is playing in Japan, there is no reason why Quang Hai cannot play in the J.League. However, this depends on the decision of the home club. I would like to add that Quang Hai is being invited by a club in Spain.”

Talking about the significance of the decisive match with Thailand, Coach Park shared: "Whether it's the Thai coach or me, we all want to prepare for the match as best we can to aim for victory. This is the last match of 2019, we know we are facing a formidable opponent. The players and I both understand the significance of this match."

"I looked at the players' eyes, I knew their determination and thoughts. I was afraid of that pressure, afraid of creating a tense atmosphere in the team. Until today, we have maintained all conditions to have the best match."

When asked by a Korean reporter about his mark on Vietnamese football, he said: "My coming to Vietnam is not something special, creating sudden, rapid development. That is not reasonable. The most important reason is that Vietnamese football has its own potential and characteristics, which is why it has achieved this success."

"Previous coaches have built the foundation for Vietnamese football to continue to develop. I am just the one who makes the best use of the resources from the past to the present to develop. I don't think my appearance is the one who helps Vietnamese football develop so much. It's all thanks to the clubs and previous coaches."

Analyzing the opponent's lineup, coach Park Hang-seo revealed: "Of course, Mr. Nishino wants to win, but tomorrow's match we will prepare the best and hope to achieve the best result. The Thai team uses many short passes and they are quite proficient. Their attack depends on Supachok No. 7, Ekanit No. 8, Chanathip No. 18 and Teerasil Dangda No. 10 is the highest player.

Thai players now have good central and short passes. Watching the video, you think they play with 3 center backs, but actually they play 4-2-3-1. When the right back moves up, it becomes 3 center backs because the other wing doesn't move up. You have to understand that."

Talking about Thailand's weaknesses, Coach Park admitted: "This afternoon, we have a final training session to check our health and performance, then I will announce the list for tomorrow. As we know through Thailand's loss to Malaysia. There is space behind them, we can exploit their defense. We will play one, two, three, I think they will be very confused. I cannot say clearly what we are preparing, but we know Thailand's weaknesses."

Before the match, coach Park Hang-seo finalized the list of 23 official players. Accordingly, the center backNguyen Huu Tuanand midfielderNguyen Huy Hungnot registered. The Vietnam team will meet Thailand in the match in Group G of the 2022 World Cup qualifiers in Asia at 20:00 on November 19.
