Coach Hector Cuper praised Mr. Troussier, affirming that the Vietnamese team played well.

"In this friendly match, the number of spectators who came to watch the match at Thien Truong Stadium was very large. The atmosphere on the field and the heat of the stands made it difficult for us. It was not easy for the Syrian team to enter the match with such an atmosphere. The Vietnamese team played better, they won with a score of 1-0 and completely deserved to win," coach Hector Cuper shared after the Syrian team's defeat to the Vietnamese team.

Despite being highly regarded due to its higher FIFA ranking (90 compared to 95) than the Vietnamese team, in addition to its experience competing in major tournaments, the Syrian team played a stalemate for 90 minutes at Thien Truong Stadium on the evening of June 20.

The Syrian team could not control the game, the Vietnamese team's defense exploited the space behind them and conceded the only goal in the 49th minute.

Vietnam team won convincingly

Coach Hector Cuper

Coach Hector Cuper said: "As I shared, I am the new coach of the Syrian team. In this training session, I called up 12 to 15 new players who were wearing the national team jersey for the first time. They played quite heavily in the first minutes because they were not used to the high humidity weather. As time went on, they played better and better. In my opinion, the Syrian team played better than the previous two matches (against Thailand and Bahrain). The players need more time to adapt. Congratulations to the Vietnamese team for playing well and winning.

I know that the coach of the Vietnam national team also trains the U.23 team. He has good tactics. The Vietnam national team controls the ball well, making it difficult for us to recover the ball. He did very well in this match."
