Mr. Park and Troussier exchanged at the VFF youth football center.
The match between Vietnam and South Korea ended a few days ago, but its echoes have not stopped in the controversies over the heavy 0-6 loss, Mr. Troussier's three consecutive losses, and the brief appearance of Coach Park Hang-seo before the match.
In the official friendly match between the two national teams at the Suwon World Cup Stadium, it is understandable that the Korean Football Federation invited Mr. Park to attend and come down to the field as a historical ambassador, the one who has firmly built a bridge of friendship for the two football foundations and the two countries.
Korean media captured the moment when Mr. Park, after greeting the players, had a quick handshake with coach Philippe Trousier and members of the coaching staff of the Vietnamese team, with a slightly more "serious" expression than usual.
Coach Troussier continues to look for more options for the Vietnamese national team's attack.
The controversy grew even more after the match, when the Vietnamese team lost 0-6 with only 10 men (Viet Anh received a direct red card) to close the October FIFA Days with 3 consecutive losses, conceding 10 goals without scoring any.
In that situation, Mr. Park unexpectedly spoke up to defend coach Philippe Troussier in an interview with the Korean newspaper Yonhap . First, Mr. Park pointed out the difference in playing level between the players of the two teams.
Mr. Park analyzed: "To be honest, the level and way of handling the ball between Korean and Vietnamese players is still very different. When having the ball, the Korean team always performs diverse moves to put pressure on the opponent.

But in general, facing a strong opponent like Korea will create more motivation for Vietnamese players. The Vietnamese team will learn from the experiences of Korean stars playing in top European football teams to make further progress in the future."
Next, Mr. Park also expressed his belief that "White Wizard" Philippe Troussier will soon find the most suitable playing style for the Vietnamese team: "I have my own coaching style and so does coach Philippe Troussier.
I know that coach Philippe Troussier is a talented and capable coach. He will soon show his own color . Mr. Troussier will soon find the key to operating the Vietnamese team's playing style!".
