Coach Kim Sang Sik talks about Cao Pendant Quang Vinh's playing position

Appearing for the first time in the Vietnamese national team, Cao Pendant Quang Vinh is expected to be a prominent factor like Xuan Son. This newly naturalized player is also very eager to show himself.

Coach Kim Sang Sik highly appreciated the integration and versatility of this player after 1 week of training: “Quang Vinh can play many positions, from left center back, full back to winger. His appearance helps the team's tactics become more flexible. I will continue to analyze to maximize the strengths of Quang Vinh as well as other players.”

Talking about the head-to-head record between Vietnam and Malaysia over the past 10 years, coach Kim Sang Sik said: “The fact that Malaysia has not been able to beat Vietnam for over 10 years is quite special, especially when they, like Thailand, are our long-standing opponents. However, this achievement also partly reflects the careful preparation and confidence of the Vietnamese players. I hope the whole team will continue to maintain this confidence in the next match.”

Mr. Kim Sang Sik did not deny his anxiety when so many key players were absent due to injury, while Malaysia added many new naturalized players: “According to the information we have, Malaysia has about 8-10 new naturalized players compared to the last tournament, causing many difficulties in analyzing the opponent's tactics. We will continue to monitor and analyze to have the best preparation. The players are all trying their best to be ready for the away match on June 10.”

According to the plan, the Vietnamese team will leave for Malaysia on the morning of June 6. Coach Kim Sang Sik once again affirmed that his team will win on away ground: "All matches are very stressful, but the joy will be doubled when we overcome difficulties and win. I always believe that the players will unite and make efforts to overcome the challenges. Although the qualifying round takes place in a round-robin format, we do not want to drop any points and aim to win all 3 points in the next match."
