U23 Vietnam vs U23 Uzbekistan: Reclaiming debt from Changzhou!
Not focusing on the achievement, but certainly U23 Vietnam entered the final match of the 2018 Four Nations Cup with the determination to defeat U23 Uzbekistan to get revenge for the debt in Changzhou. As for coach Park Hang Seo, this is the match for him to finalize the team's structure and playing style before going to Indonesia to attend the 2018 Asian Games.
U23 Uzbekistan is the opponent that defeated U23 Vietnam at the 2018 AFC U23 Championship. Meeting each other again this time in Hanoi in a tournament of a completely different nature, but no matter what, this is still the most anticipated match in the Four Nations Cup.
Uzbekistan may have played poorly in the last two matches, but when facing U23 Vietnam, this team is determined to do their best to get the best result. Uzbekistan coach Khaydarov himself has repeatedly stated that the highest goal of him and his students in the Four Nations Cup is to defeat the host Vietnam.

Meanwhile, for U23 Vietnam, this is the match that the players have been waiting for a long time. The memory of Thuong Chau is still like yesterday with Cong Phuong, Xuan Truong, Van Thanh… They are eager and determined to get their debt back, creating a boost for Asiad 2018.
As for coach Park Hang Seo, he also has to make his own calculations for this match. Most likely, U23 Vietnam will take the field with the strongest lineup to rehearse for the Asiad, but there will also be personnel changes to check the 20 faces on the list that will be finalized right after the match.
Accordingly, the goalkeeper position can be given to Dang Van Lam (or possibly Van Hoang because he has not played in any match). The three defenders in the 3-5-3 tactical formation are Van Hau, Duy Manh, Dinh Trong. The midfielders include Van Thanh, Duc Huy, Xuan Truong, Quang Hai, Van Quyet. Cong Phuong plays in the attacking midfielder position, and the only striker in U23 Vietnam is Anh Duc.

This is the strongest lineup, and played very well in the opening match. Coach Park Hang Seo will likely use substitutions in the second half, with familiar names such as Xuan Manh, Van Toan, Van Duc, Duc Chinh...
Basically, Coach Park Hang Seo already has in mind the names for the Asian Games, along with the favorite playing style and the framework of U23 Vietnam. However, the Korean coach must wait until the end of the match to officially finalize, because the risk of injury can still occur. Therefore, a win, along with experimentation and avoiding injuries, are the specific goals for U23 Vietnam in the farewell match of the Four Nations Cup.
The match between U23 Vietnam vs U23 Uzbekistan will take place at 19:30, at My Dinh Stadium.
