Vietnam - Jordan match amid the "storm" between Mr. Duc and Mr. Tu
On March 27, the Vietnam national football team will have its final match in the 2019 Asian Cup qualifiers and coach Park Hang-seo and his team will compete in the context of the "war" between Mr. Duc and Mr. Tu that is causing a stir in the football world.

When coach Park Hang-seo called up 5 HAGL players, Xuan Truong, Cong Phuong, Van Thanh, Van Toan, and Hong Duy, to the national team to prepare for the match with Jordan, it was also the time when Mr. Duc made shocking statements in the Vietnamese football community.
In it, he declared that if Mr. Tran Anh Tu is elected as Vice President of VFF term VIII, he will quit football. He will even withdraw HAGL from V.League.
A question that will certainly make many people ask is: What will the Hoang Anh players think about the owner's statement? In fact, this is entirely possible if Mr. Duc "fights" to the end. Even the media has already drawn a vision of these players after Mr. Duc quits football. Thus, they will no longer have the opportunity to wear the national team jersey.
However, as a reassurance measure, Mr. Duc later said that he had taken care of providing HAGL players with a place to play by contacting foreign football teams.

And while the national team is preparing for the final match of the 2019 Asian Cup qualifiers against Jordan, Mr. Duc still does not stop expressing his opinion about the "struggle". And the "struggle" between two members of the VFF Standing Committee has caused a stir in the entire football world.
The match between Vietnam and Jordan is more or less a formality as coach Park Hang-seo and his team have officially won tickets to the 2019 Asian Cup finals. However, this is a match in which Mr. Park still wants his players to play their best.
He said that "whether the match is meaningful or not, the head coach's duty is to try his best. Therefore, we will try our best in the next match."
In the upcoming match, not only will the U23 Vietnam players who have just returned from the U23 Asian Cup be the focus of attention, but the HAGL players themselves will also be the focus of public opinion. Because the "battle" between Mr. Duc and Mr. Tu has not shown any signs of stopping. Hopefully, "Mr. Duc's children" will not be distracted by adult matters in the match where they need to prove their worth.
The match between Vietnam and Jordan will take place at 22:00 (Vietnam time) on March 27.
