Duy Manh humorously said: We don't even know what to eat tomorrow, let alone predict the match results early...

Captain Duy Manh made some very interesting statements before the match between Vietnam and host Malaysia in the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers at 8:00 p.m. tonight (June 10).

Duy Manh wants the Vietnamese team to be really alert.

Captain Do Duy Manh , at the press conference before the match, shared his determination with his teammates to overcome the pressure at Bukit Jalil Stadium, where he played in the 2018 AFF Cup final and most recently in a friendly match with MU Club and the Southeast Asian All-Star team.

Coach Kim Sang-sik and his students both expressed high determination.

“I understand the heat and enthusiasm of the Malaysian audience. My teammates and I need to try to overcome the pressure from the home audience, try to stay calm to play well and fulfill the responsibilities assigned by the coaching staff.”

Duy Manh added that the Malaysian team has had many changes, from the coach to the players. “According to the information I know, the other team has 17-18 naturalized players as well as players playing abroad. They are all very high-quality players. Surely the match on June 10 will not be an easy match for us. But we also have our own determination and goals. We will prepare the best to be able to get the best results in tomorrow's match,” Duy Manh emphasized.

He also joked, with a witty remark, that we don't even know what to eat tomorrow, let alone predict the result of the match. Win, lose or draw will only be known after 90 minutes!
