With U22 Indonesia losing to U22 Philippines, U22 Vietnam only needs to win 1 point in the final match to be sure to advance. However, coach Kim Sang Sik's team aims to win against U22 Malaysia.

Midfielder Nguyen Thai Quoc Cuong affirmed: "We are definitely aiming for a win against Malaysia, not a draw. U22 Vietnam must definitely have the highest determination. In the past few days, my teammates and I have shown great solidarity and determination."

Quoc Cuong talked about the difficulties in the journey at SEA Games 33, but he and his team members overcame them. "For us, difficulties are just external factors. Because the more difficulties we face and the more success we achieve, the more valuable it is," said the U22 Vietnam midfielder.

Attending the SEA Games for the first time, Quoc Cuong shared his feelings: "It is a matter of pride for me personally as well as for my family. Being able to join the U22 Vietnam team to attend the SEA Games is a great honor."

Few people know that Quoc Cuong is Cong Phuong's cousin. He said that he is constantly supported and guided by his brother: "Mr. Phuong always encourages me and points out my shortcomings and mistakes that I need to improve."
