The Vietnamese national team became more and more exciting with each match.
The victory against Myanmar in the group stage was the best performance by new faces in the Vietnamese national team, such as Bui Vi Hao and Truong Tien Anh, since the start of the AFF Cup 2024. Bui Vi Hao had two shots on goal, one of which resulted in a goal for the Vietnamese team.
The remaining situation was disallowed as a goal due to an offside infringement by the Vietnamese team. However, the aforementioned play also demonstrated Vi Hao's quick reflexes; he appeared at the right moment and executed a precise shot from a tight angle.
Bui Vi Hao is increasingly demonstrating his capabilities.
Regarding Truong Tien Anh, former VFF Vice President for Professional Affairs Duong Vu Lam commented: “I am impressed with this player's crosses. He doesn't loft the ball high when making passes from the wing, but instead makes diagonal passes from near the end of the field to the front, along with very dangerous crosses. These kinds of crosses create opportunities for attacking players inside the box to cut across the opposing defenders and finish.”
Truong Tien Anh is no longer very young (25 years old), but he doesn't have much international experience. The reason he didn't perform as well in previous matches as he did against Myanmar on December 21st was because the Vietnamese team's lineup was unstable in the early stages of the tournament. However, in the match against Myanmar, the Vietnamese team's lineup was much better.

Playing alongside good, capable, and experienced teammates, the young and new players of the Vietnamese national team are better guided, becoming more confident and performing more cohesively.
Regarding this issue, former Vietnam national team coach Phan Thanh Hung shared: “When young players are surrounded by talented players, they experience less pressure compared to facing opponents with more cunning tactics on their own. Furthermore, because the players alongside them are talented, the passes and combinations between the young players and their senior teammates will be handled better by the senior players. As a result, the team's overall play is less prone to errors.”
Vietnam's starting lineup in the match against Myanmar
For example, Nguyen Xuan Son's appearance in the match against Myanmar attracted the attention of many opposing defenders. Many Myanmar players focused on marking Nguyen Xuan Son, which also meant that gaps would open up for Bui Vi Hao, before the 21-year-old had the opportunity to exploit those gaps.
Besides Vi Hao, the Vietnamese national team still has another noteworthy newcomer in the attacking line: Nguyen Hai Long. This player did not appear in the match against Myanmar. However, it is possible that Hai Long will get more playing time in the coming days, especially after striker Van Toan's injury. If Hai Long plays in a strong lineup like the one against Myanmar, it is highly likely that the Hanoi FC player will perform even better than he has so far in the AFF Cup 2024.
