After nearly a year of playing in the V.League, Cao Pendant Quang Vinh was called up to the Vietnam national team for the first time. At the age of 28, the French-Vietnamese player is going through a period of stability and sublimation in his career, especially when he is an indispensable pillar in the CAHN club squad. Quang Vinh's presence in this training session opens up new hope for the left wing of the Vietnam national team.

Cao Pendant Quang Vinh played in Ligue 2 and MLS before joining CAHN Club in August 2024. He immediately won the starting position and had 31 appearances in all competitions this season.

Playing in the left-back position, Quang Vinh stands out with his modern playing style, balanced attack and defense, speed, good tactical thinking and strong physical strength.

Impressive form with 2 goals and 2 assists in the last 5 matches further proves Quang Vinh's readiness.

In the context that coach Kim Sang-sik is looking for stability and improving the strength of the flanks, especially when opponents like Malaysia are getting stronger with naturalized players, having a plan that is both physically strong and has experience in European football is necessary.

On the left flank of the Vietnam national team at the moment, Nguyen Van Vi is the most interesting discovery under coach Kim Sang-sik. The player from Nam Dinh plays prominently in the V.League 2024/25 thanks to his strong physical foundation, good speed and fiery fighting spirit. He is a durable defender, not afraid of collisions, especially suitable for high-intensity matches.

However, if Van Vi is strong in his jumping power and dedication, Cao Pendant Quang Vinh brings a very different color, with a calm and confident playing style.

Quang Vinh's difference also lies in his extensive experience playing professional football in Europe and America, something rare for a player currently playing for the Vietnamese national team.

In the context that the Vietnamese team needs many tactical options to confront opponents with different playing styles in the Asian Cup qualifiers, having both Van Vi and Quang Vinh will create interesting competition.

One of them is energetic and has good pressing skills, the other is calm and sharp in handling the ball. The competition between these two left-backs promises to be a hot topic in the upcoming training sessions of the Vietnam team, and is also an opportunity for coach Kim to choose the most suitable piece for his system.

With coach Kim Sang-sik's preferred 3-4-3 tactical system, Cao Pendant Quang Vinh can be used in 2 positions: left back or left center back. These are two positions that Quang Vinh plays well.

In the role of left-sided center-back, he can develop his ability to read situations, head the ball or compete in one-on-one matches. If used as a wing-back, Quang Vinh can maximize his physical strength and tactical vision to continuously move up and down the field for 90 minutes.

In both scenarios, Quang Vinh's presence will help the Vietnamese team significantly improve their ability to defend on the flanks and support attacks, especially when facing opponents with a fast playing style.

Calling up a Vietnamese player like Quang Vinh is not only a recognition of his performance, but also demonstrates a strategy to find new factors with diverse physical abilities and international competition experience.

However, with this training session, Cao Pendant Quang Vinh needs to demonstrate his ability to integrate quickly, maintain his impressive form as at the club and prove that he is not just a backup option.

If he makes good use of it, he can completely become an important piece, even the number one choice on the left wing of the Vietnam team in the near future.
