Vietnam Team: Time for Coach Kim Sang Sik to choose the right person

Coach Kim Sang SikHe is still quite reserved when making personnel decisions for the Vietnam team, but it is time for him to be more decisive and precise.

On average, in each training session, Mr. Kim Sang Sik usually calls up about 26-27 players, causing little surprise or novelty for fans to be able to light up hope for a personnel revolution in the team that has lost a lot of motivation and aspiration... since Coach Park Hang-seo left.

Originally not new, the list that the captain of the Vietnamese team gave is not entirely accurate if we consider the criteria of performance, typically the case of Van Quyet when he had to wait until the third time to be called up, for example.

And because there is little or no evaluation based on performance, ability, etc., in the past 3 training sessions, the Vietnamese team has also had a few names that have made fans and experts hesitant.

Also from here, the time when the pillars of the previous Vietnam team declined in both form and spirit, so it is not difficult to understand why coach Kim Sang Sik has not achieved positive results to create confidence for fans as expected.

After 5 matches including friendly and official matches, coach Kim Sang Sik should have finished building the human and playing style framework for the Vietnamese team by now, and the final batch of troops in November is just the final review.

Among the three Asian representatives, North Korea has already secured a ticket to the quarter-finals while Japan is almost certain to advance. However, South Korea is at risk of being eliminated early because it will face a very strong opponent, the United States, in the final match of Group B. With only 1 point, the young team from the land of Kimchi must win while the United States only needs a draw.

However, the Asian representative could not cause any difficulty for the American team because of their much weaker level.

Striker born in 2008 makes history in Champions League

In the early morning of October 23, Francesco Camarda debuted in the 3-1 win of host AC Milan against Club Brugge in League Phase, Champions League.

In the 75th minute of the match between AC Milan and Club Brugge, Francesco Camarda was brought on to replace Alvaro Morata. This moment made Camarda (16 years, 226 days) into history as the youngest Italian player to play in the Champions League. He is also the 7th youngest player in the history of Europe's most prestigious cup tournament.

In the 85th minute, Camarda jumped high to head the ball into the Club Brugge net after his teammate's precise cross.

However, the joy of number 73 did not last long. After consulting with the VAR team, the main referee Felix Zwayer denied Camarda's goal for offside. Not stopping there, this player also received a yellow card for taking off his shirt to celebrate during the match.

Real Madrid's crazy match

In the early morning of October 23, at home stadium Bernabeu, Real Madrid was down 2-0 to Dortmund after the first half but still won 5-2 in League Phase, UEFA Champions League.

In the 83rd minute, with the score at 2-2, Rodrygo broke through with determination on the right wing, resulting in a muscle strain. However, he was still able to get the ball to Lucas Vazquez. Inside, Vazquez did not let his team-mate down with a decisive shot from a tight angle, defeating goalkeeper Gregor Kobel.

Vazquez's goal helped Real Madrid play brilliantly for the rest of the match. In the 86th minute, Vinicius broke through from the home field, before firing a decisive shot from the 16.5m mark, raising the score to 4-2. In the 90+4th minute, Vinicius made the Bernabeu stadium explode with joy when he dribbled past two Dortmund defenders, before finishing with his left foot, sealing a 5-2 victory for the home team.
