"I am very grateful to the CAHN club management for preparing a deep squad for me. New players will be on the field and I believe they will perform well.

In response to many criticisms directed at Nguyen Filip - who made mistakes in the recent draw with Beijing Guo'an in the Asian Cup C2, Mr. Polking spoke up to defend his student, clearly expressing his opinion. "There were a few situations where Nguyen Filip lost focus, but that is also unavoidable, normal in football. After that match, I talked and gave advice to Nguyen Filip. I do not doubt his class. For me, Nguyen Filip is still the number 1 goalkeeper at CAHN Club, the current top of the national team," the strategist with dual German - Brazilian nationality affirmed.
Mr. Polking admitted that in the past few matches, there were times when CAHN players lost concentration, leading to unfortunate goals. He himself worked to help his students increase their concentration throughout the match, making the most of the opportunities created.
"I am always excited about participating in international tournaments and want my team to participate regularly. Because there, we get to meet big, highly skilled opponents, so the players can compete and gain experience. Everything that has happened will be useful for the players on the journey ahead," concluded the head coach of Hanoi Police.
