5 milestones in the match where Vietnam team defeated Indonesia: Kim Sang-sik's mark

Coach Kim Sang-sik has an important victory with the Vietnamese team

1. Kim Sang-sik's Mark

As predicted by Thanh Nien Newspaper, in the second match of the AFF Cup, Coach Kim Sang-sik once again surprised by shuffling nearly half of the main squad and changing the formation from 3-4-3 to 3-5-2 with Hoang Duc and Tien Linh playing highest.

In the second half, when the opponent started to lose strength, Mr. Kim sent in Van Khang and Van Thanh, who were full of surprises, to penetrate deep into the wings. Hoang Duc retreated to the middle of the field, helping us exploit the space better, and the goal came.

After 2 matches, Coach Shin Tae-yong has gradually established his mark, with a playing style and players that do not stick to a "model" but are willing to change depending on the opponent as well as the characteristics of each player.

2. Vietnam team firmly establishes top position

Quang Hai's goal in the 77th minute made Viet Tri Stadium in Viet Tri City burst with joy, helping the Vietnamese team defeat their opponent Indonesia to solidify their top position in Group B.

With 2 consecutive victories, the Vietnamese team has risen to the top of Group B with 6 points, 2 points more than Indonesia (3 matches, 4 points) although there is still 1 match left to play, while the gap with the Philippines and Laos is 4 points.

This victory not only affirms our position as the strongest team in Group B, but also gives coach Kim Sang-sik and his team a wide range of options to calculate, and can even proactively choose opponents in the semi-finals of the AFF Cup 2024 when needed.

3. Important psychological relief

We have waited for Quang Hai for too long, missing the decisiveness and sharpness of number 19 to solve the most difficult moments. Since Hai "son" returned from France, fans have only now seen him have such a star-like explosive moment.

Two consecutive shots, one hitting the crossbar and one taking the ball within Tien Linh's control (very smartly stepping back to give it to his teammate), helped people find the image of Quang Hai who created beautiful goals at the national team level a few years ago.

Nguyen Filip must be very grateful to Quang Hai (and Thanh Chung too) for his victory and first clean sheet with the Vietnam national team in his 10th appearance. In fact, he played well and made a great save in the second half to help the Vietnam team avoid a goal that could have created a crisis.

In addition, this is also an important victory for the Vietnamese team, helping us balance the psychological problem against an opponent that was once a constant loser but has recently continuously won thanks to a strong naturalized squad.

Coach Shin Tae-yong still hasn't beaten the Vietnamese team at the AFF Cup.

4. Coach Shin Tae-yong: 2 losses, 2 draws at AFF Cup

Coach Shin Tae-yong could do nothing more to correct history, as the young Indonesian team played hard throughout the match, using many tricks but could not get a draw as PSSI President Erik Thihor had hoped.

In the 4th meeting, Coach Shin received another defeat to have a record of 2 losses, 2 draws against the Vietnamese team at the AFF Cup. The difference this time was that the one who defeated him was his junior, his old teammate Kim Sang-sik.

But clearly Mr. Shin is building a young team with a future, promising to be a formidable name at the 33rd SEA Games in Thailand next year as well as the U.23 Asian tournament, although they will have to reduce their habit of violent tackles.

5. Gameplay still needs improvement

Although happy with the victory, we still have to be honest with each other that the Vietnamese team still needs to improve their playing style, from clearer ideas to more confidence and boldness in their attacks.

In fact, the two Vietnamese teams played quite actively, constantly creating pressure to stretch the crowded defense of Indonesia. However, the final coordination to bring the ball in was still inaccurate, making Tien Linh and Hoang Duc very hungry for the ball.

Ahead of the Vietnamese team will be opponents who want to play similar "double-decker bus" football, such as the Philippines and Myanmar, so coach Kim Sang-sik and his team will need to increase the speed and quality of their passes to be able to "disrupt" the opponent's defense, opening up scoring space.
