Vietnam futsal team plays friendly match with World Cup-class opponent right in Ho Chi Minh City

These are two matches organized to serve the professional work of the two teams, on the occasion of the Solomon Islands futsal team coming to Vietnam for training to prepare for the tournaments of 2023. The two matches with Solomon Islands are a test for the Vietnam futsal team to re-evaluate their strength.

In terms of world futsal rankings, the Solomon Islands futsal team is ranked 54th, 15 places lower than the Vietnam futsal team. However, the futsal representative from Oceania has impressed with 4 consecutive times qualifying for the Futsal World Cup finals, from 2008 to 2021.

Vietnam futsal team has useful competition

Historically, the Vietnam futsal team had faced the Solomon Islands futsal team at the 2017 Asian Indoor Games and won 2-1 thanks to goals from Phung Trong Luan and Pham Duc Hoa.

With such quality opponents, the two friendly matches will be a very good basis for coach Giustozzi Diego Raul to evaluate his squad before narrowing down the list to 16 players for the training trip to Paraguay and Argentina.

The Vietnam futsal team will play friendly matches with Solomon Islands at 5 p.m. on May 25 and 26 at Thai Son Nam Stadium, District 8, Ho Chi Minh City. The matches will be broadcast live on VFF Channel, VFF Fanpage, and Futsal TV.
