Bui Vi Hao hopes to be lucky and win the SEA Games Gold Medal with U22 Vietnam

The most anticipated striker of U22 Vietnam hopes for third time luck - to have his first SEA Games and win gold medal with the team.

On the afternoon of November 24, U22 Vietnam and coach Kim Sang Sik officially gathered for the final training session in Ba Ria Vung Tau to prepare for the 33rd SEA Games.

Sharing with the media, striker Bui Vi Hao expressed: " I am very happy and honored to be called back to the Vietnam U22 team by coach Kim Sang Sik after 8 months of injury treatment.

Vi Hao hopes to have the first SEA Games in his career.

The previous two times I was unlucky to be absent from the final list. I hope this can be the first SEA Games in my football career. Because I have just returned from injury and do not have the best feeling of playing, I do not demand too much from myself, but will try my best.

At the recent Panda Cup, the coach let me enter the field for a few minutes to regain my playing feeling and physical strength after a long injury journey.

Basically, I'm still quite confident in myself, because before that I also practiced with the club and had internal practice matches."

Evaluating U22 Vietnam, Bui Vi Hao shared: “ The whole team played well and united in the last tournament, but there are weaknesses that need to be improved. This period is for us to perfect our playing style and create more cohesion.

At the Panda Cup, U22 Vietnam did not create many opportunities, their scoring ability was not sharp, this will be a lesson for the whole team to play better."

Vi Hao added: " The team's goal is to win the 33rd SEA Games gold medal. We are not under pressure because we have been together through many tournaments and achieved success. Currently, U22 Vietnam is confident heading towards the Regional Sports Festival."

Regarding U22 Vietnam, right after gathering in Ba Ria Vung Tau, the whole team went out to the field and started training immediately. Some players who had just participated in the matches in the 1/8 round of the National Cup were given separate recovery training by coach Kim Sang Sik.
