In the list of players called up to the national team, coach Kim Sang-sik could not call names like Tan Tai, Xuan Son, Van Toan... When it came to the national team, he had to say goodbye to two quality central defenders, Thanh Binh and Viet Anh. But the difficulties did not stop there. As soon as the national team gathered yesterday, the doctors announced that Dinh Trieu, Cong Phuong and Duc Chien had some physical problems.
All 3 seem to be overloaded after a period of playing with high frequency. Cong Phuong has continuously played in the last rounds for Binh Phuoc. Dinh Trieu has always been an irreplaceable stopper for Hai Phong and Duc Chien has not missed a minute in the last 4 matches for Viettel .
The current situation has forced all three players to rehabilitate at the hotel to avoid further injury. Cong Phuong, who has just returned to the team after more than a year of absence, certainly brings the biggest worry.

Because currently, the Vietnamese team is lacking quality strikers. Xuan Son, Vi Hao and Van Toan have long-term injuries so they cannot be called up to the team, while Tien Linh also sat out Binh Duong 's most recent match due to injury.
The current situation has left the team short of options for attacking positions. More than half of the best strikers will not be able to participate in the match against Malaysia and if Cong Phuong is also absent, the team's offensive power will certainly be greatly affected.
In contrast to Vietnam's physical concerns, Malaysia is very comfortable preparing for the big match. Their national championship ended in April, so the players have had plenty of time to rest. The team gathered on May 18, has a stable squad and just played a warm-up match, drawing 1-1 with Cape Verde, the team ranked 72nd in the world .
