Although the loss of U22 Vietnam to U22 Indonesia in the semi-finals of the men's football event of the 32nd SEA Games took place on May 13, the echoes of that match are still very hot.

Recently, Indonesia's leading newspaper Bola Sport unexpectedly said that coach Troussier is likely to be fired after returning from the 32nd SEA Games.
“Coach Troussier was once fired because of Indonesia and this strategist once again faces a similar risk after the painful defeat of U22 Vietnam,” the newspaper of the archipelago said.
Previously, coach Troussier was dismissed by Qatar right after losing 1-2 to Indonesia in the first round of the 2004 Asian Cup group stage in Beijing (China).
Bola Sport newspaper said that after the defeat against U22 Indonesia, on Vietnamese social networking sites, many fans expressed dissatisfaction with coach Troussier's football philosophy.
Besides, the statistics of U22 Vietnam at SEA Games 32 are also not impressive when scoring 10 goals but also had to pick the ball out of the net 6 times.
The last time the "Golden Star Warriors" conceded so many goals at a SEA Games was 12 years ago.
At the 2011 SEA Games, U23 Vietnam was also led by a foreign coach, Mr. Falko Goetz.
Right after the defeat in the bronze medal match against Myanmar, this strategist was also fired by VFF.
According to the schedule, on May 16, U22 Vietnam will enter the bronze medal match with U22 Myanmar, the team that lost to Thailand in the semi-finals.
