Center back Bui Hoang Viet Anh: "The Vietnamese team must at least draw with Indonesia in the first leg"

Commenting on the upcoming away match in Indonesia, the Hanoi Police Club midfielder said: "Myself and the whole team know that we need to get at least a draw in the first leg with Indonesia, then win in the second leg. Therefore, the whole team is very focused to be able to complete the set goal. When we go on the field, we show respect to all opponents. These are two difficult matches and the whole team needs the support of the fans."

Bui Hoang Viet Anh suffered a mouth injury after a strong collision with a The Cong Viettel player in round 13 of the V-League. The Hanoi Police Club midfielder later received 24 stitches on the wound, causing fans to worry about his ability to be called up to the national team.

However, this central defender was still called up by Coach Troussier. He recovered quickly, had his stitches removed on March 15 and quickly returned to training. The return of Viet Anh helps Coach Troussier feel more secure with the Vietnamese national team's defense in the upcoming two important matches against Indonesia.
